[INTRO]
B E B E
B E B E
[VERSE 1]
B E
It's been a long and twisted highway through so many setting suns
B
Oh I couldn't settle down and plant my feet upon the ground
E
There was always so much to be done
[PRE CHORUS]
F# B E
Oh I know my fingers how they bled from gripping on for so long
F#
My calloused hands have cracked so deep
B E
Cracks went right down to the bone
F#
And then I regazed and I was so amazed
[CHORUS]
B E
And oh I've ben so blind
C#m B
I could not not see what is right in front of me
B E
Oh and I can't hear my heart beat
C#m B
Oh it pounds on and on just like a drum
E
And I've been frozen in my tracks
C#m B
But my spirit's fire in the sun
[INSTRUMENTAL]
B E
B E
[VERSE]
B
And where do I go off to now I'm trying so hard to grow
E
And with each new situation I'm challenging my hesitation
B
Trying to fill this life I'm living and accept that things are changing
E
And let go of what drags me down and useless information
[PRE CHORUS]
F# B E
And oh all my fingers have been bled from gripping on for so long
F#
And I let my spirit fly away oh
B E
To see from a different point of view
F#
And then I regazed and I was so amazed
[CHORUS]
B E
And oh I've ben so blind
C#m B
I could not not see what is right in front of me
B E
Oh and I can't hear my heart beat
C#m B
Oh it pounds on and on just like a drum
E
And I've been frozen in my tracks
C#m B
But my spirit's fire in the sun
