On the road of experience
I’m trying to find my own way
Sometimes I wish that I could fly away
When I think that I’m moving
Suddenly things stand still
I’m afraid ‘cause I think they always will

CHORUS
F
And I’m looking for space
G C Cmaj9
And to find out who I am
Am F(Barred) Csus2 Cmaj9(Barrred)
And I’m looking to know and understand
F G C Cmaj9 Am
It’s a sweet sweet dream
F G C Cmaj9
Sometimes I’m almost there
F G C Cmaj9
Sometimes I fly like an eagle and
F Csus2 Cmaj9
Sometimes I’m deep in despair

Verse 2:
All alone in the universe
Sometimes that’s how it seems
I get lost in the sadness and the screams
Then I look in the centre
Suddenly everything’s clear
I find myself in the sunshine and my dreams

CHORUS
F
And I’m looking for space
G C Cmaj9
And to find out who I am
Am F(Barred) Csus2 Cmaj9(Barred)
And I’m looking to know and understand
F G C Cmaj9 Am
It’s a sweet sweet dream
F G C Cmaj9
Sometimes I’m almost there
F G C Cmaj9
Sometimes I fly like an eagle and
F Csus2 Cmaj9
Sometimes I’m deep in despair

Verse 3:
On the road of experience
Join in the living day
If there’s an answer
It’s just that it’s just that way
