G
Well a wise man once said to me
                                                                    Em
If your heart don’t break you wont be free
C                               D
But I’m as free as a bird
C               D
Flying out over,
C               D                  G
flying out over the sea
G                 
I call out to the wind
                                               Em
But no one comes to let me in
C                    D   
I hear the thunder
C                                D
The weight on my shoulders
C                                     D                          G
The weight upon my shoulders crush’in me
F          C                   G  
Shine down on this mountain
F         C                   G
Rain down on my face
F        C              G
Call out to the river
G             D
To wash me out
D            C                       G
to wash me out of this place
G                                   
Well I wish that I was a sailor man
G                                                            Em
With the wheel of the ship held in my hand
C                              D
But I don’t like the water
C                              D
I’m more like the anchor
C                          D              G
I wish I was the anchor in me
G                                      
Sometimes I wish I was a sin
                                                            Em
So the ones I love wouldn’t let me in
C                              D
I wouldn’t have to try
C                 D
To find the answers
C                                 D                    G
To give them all the answers they need
F            C                  G
Shine down on this mountain
F         C                  G
Rain down on my face
F       C               G
Call out to the river
G             D
To wash me out
D              C                     G
to wash me out of this place
G
Well a wise man once said to me
                                                                    Em
If your heart don’t break you wont be free
C                               D
But I’m as free as a bird

Flying out over,
