Em  G  A  (4x)  D

D                   G    D      G      D      Em   Em7  A
Sure a lot smaller every day.  Wonder why we feel this way
D                                     G       D
You don't know that I've got nothing left to say
           Em               A            Em                A
I've been blown across the water like a ship ain't got no sail
Em             A      D
That ain't no way to feel

D                    G        D      G         D       Em  Em7  A
I feel that longing loud and clear. Dead end streets and I lay here
D                                    G       D
When your flying you've got nothing left to fear
             Em             A            Em                A
I've been blown across the water like a ship ain't got no sail
Em             A       D
That ain't no way to feel

G       Em         G        A         D
Winter wind keeps blowing through the trees
G               Em        G     A      D
But life keeps breathing gaily as you please
G              Em        G   A       D
Hey now silver birches lying by the road
G         Em      G         A       D
Branches lined against the winter snow

D                    G   D       D    G        Em   Em7  A
We left the shelter yesterday.  After we had played all day
D                                   G      D
You can find that I've got nothing left to say
             Em                A          Em                A
'Less your blowing cross the water like a ship ain't got no sail
Em             A       D
That ain't not way to feel
              Em               A           Em                A
'Less your blowing cross the water like a ship ain't got no sail
Em            A        D
That ain't no way to feel
