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
