When the chips are downAnd you're blinded on your feetYou're standing up and walkingBut you know you are dead meatThe sky is bustingIt's near the break of dayYou're running out optionsRunning out of placeThe leaves are crackingWithered on the treesBeg you, darlingWon't you say a prayer for meI need your Benediction'Cause I'm a soul in needI can't sit down much lower'Cause I'm on my kneesLike the blind leading the blindAfter the wine, the tears, they are gushingJust like the blind leading the blindTime after time you won't let the love inYou are the sharpest knifeYou are the finest bladeYou are the shining sunEverybody's in your shadeSo funny to youDripping honey from your tongueBut you never know what's going onWhen the day is doneThere is a sadness just grinding in your bonesA twisted trap down which you're forced to goYou need the hand of friendship to steady up your heartSo hang on to me, baby, I'll show you down the pathJust like the blind leading the blindAsking me why you won't let the love inOh, like the blind leading the blindOnly to find your feelings are nothing, ah!Mm, just like the blind leading the blindAfter the wine, your tears, they are gushing, gushing, yeahJust like the blind leading the blindJust like you'll find it's leading to nothing, nothingOh, oh, yeahMm, just like the blind leading the blindTime after timeIt's leading to nothing, nothing, nothing, not a thingLeading the blindAfter the wine, the tears, they are gushing, gushing, gushing
