Broken Ladders To Glory

Terry Scott Taylor

[Verse 1]
When the day is done
We'll get out of here
When the race is run
And the coast is clear
Jump a sinking ship
Grab a falling leaf
I'll place a smoke ring 'round your yellow fingers
And a rose in your teeth

[Chorus]
We'll go climbing broken ladders to glory
Climbing broken ladders to glory

[Verse 2]
When the faithful doubt
Feel the rafters shake
Feel our souls wear out
And our laces break
You're my ravaged nun
I'm your greasy priest
Playing "Taps" upon a battered toy trumpet
'Til the lock's released

[Chorus]
We'll go climbing broken ladders to glory
Climbing broken ladders to glory

[Guitar Solo]

[Verse 3]
When the Beast is crowned
We'll be at the dance
You in your tattered gown
Me in my underpants
I will turn to salt
You will turn to sand
We'll be blown across the cracked linoleum
Out to the Promised Land

[Outro]
When the day is done
(Climbing broken ladders up to glory)
We'll get out of here
When the day is done
(Climbing broken ladders up to glory)
We'll get out of here
