Intro [F] [C] [F] [C]
[F] [F] [A#]
At a time when the world seems to be spinnin'
[F] [C] [F]
Hopelessly out of control
[F] [F] [A#]
There's deceivers and believers and old in-betweeners
[F] [C] [F]
That seem to have no place to go
[C] [C] [A#] [F]
Well it's the same old song, it's right and it's wrong
[Dm] [C#] [C]
And livin' is just something that I do
[F] [F] [A#]
And with no place to hide, I looked in your eyes
[F] [C] [F]
And I found myself in you
[C] [C] [A#] [F]
I looked to the stars, tried all of the bars
[Dm] [C#] [C]
And I've nearly gone up in smoke
[F] [F] [A#]
Now my hand's on the wheel of somethin' that's real
[F] [C] [F] ([A#]) [F]
And I feel like I'm goin' home
[F] [F] [A#]
And in the shade of an oak, down by the river
[F] [F] [C]
Sat an old man and a boy
[F] [F] [A#]
Settin' sails, spinnin tales, and fishin' for whales
[F] [C] [F]
With a lady that they both enjoy
[C] [C] [A#] [F]
Well it's the same damn tune, it's the man and the moon
[Dm] [C#] [C]
It's the way that I feel about you
[A] [A] [D]
And with no place to hide, I looked in your eyes
[F] [C] [F]
And I found myself in you
[C] [C] [A#] [F]
I looked to the stars, tried all of the bars
[Dm] [C#] [C]
And I've nearly gone up in smoke
[F] [F] [A#]
Now my hand's on the wheel of somethin' that's real
[F] [C] [F] ([A#]) [F]
And I feel like I'm goin' home
