A (x02220@1)                         D (xx0232@1)    E (022100@1)                       ADeep (x02220@1)through a hole in the clouds, the sun was screaming' hey you.
A (x02220@1)                         D (xx0232@1)      E (022100@1)                           AAs (x02220@1)you ramble through your sorrow, seems like everything come out wrong.
A (x02220@1)                         D (xx0232@1)       E (022100@1)                            AI'm (x02220@1)living in yesterday's tomorrow's, I know something's helping me along.

A (x02220@1)                     D (xx0232@1)              EI'll (022100@1)take a simple C to G and feel brand new about it.
