It takes cold dry eyes... G C Ohhh... In your quiet eyes problems arose... G C It doesn't take a man, man at all, to shine this light G C All it takes, a green light to show that the day's alright, G C Down... down the road, Cause now you know, now you know G C It takes a woman you breeze when you follow the road, my dream G C And on this quiet night, only starry skies, it carries us home G C It will take you to the winds, to find the man, the life I've once known G C My feet are on the ground, head is in the sound, baby we need, we're flying free, G C I knew we would, I knew we would, I knew we would. G C G C (Harmonica solo) G C It takes the freedom you go, when you follow the road, we're hangin on G C And on these quiet days, only sunny rays, it carries me home, way beyond G C Take me to the winds to find the man, life I once known G C My feet are on the ground, my head is in the sound, and baby we need, we're flying free G C I knew we could, I knew we would, I knew we could, I knew we would.

G C It doesn't take a man, man at all, to shine this light G C All it takes is a green light to show the days alright, days alright G C Honey now we know.
