G5                         C5 
Ohhh... It takes cold dry eyes...
G5                                     C5
Ohhh... In your quiet eyes problems arose...

                  G5                              C5 
It doesn't take a man, man at all, to shine this light
                G5                                  C5
All it takes, a green light to show that the day's alright, 
                 G5                   C5        
Down... down the road, Cause now you know, now you know
           G5                                             C5
It takes a woman you breeze when you follow the road, my dream
            G5
                                             C5

And on this quiet night, only starry skies, it carries us home
                        G5                                          C5
It will take you to the winds, to find the man, the life I've once known
                   G5                                     C5
My feet are on the ground, head is in the sound, baby we need, we're flying free, 
          G5                C5 
I knew we would, I knew we would, I knew we would.

It takes the freedom you go, when you follow the road, we're hangin on
             G5                                          C5
And on these quiet days, only sunny rays, it carries me home, way beyond
               G5                                  C5
Take me to the winds to find the man, life I once known
                   G5                                            C5 
My feet are on the ground, my head is in the sound, and baby we need, we're flying free
          G5                                 C5
I knew we could, I knew we would, I knew we could, I knew we would.

Oh... it takes a couple lifetimes
G5                                     C5
Oh... in your quiet eyes the problems return to my old home.
                  G5                              C5 
It doesn't take a man, man at all, to shine this light
                  G5                            C5                       
All it takes is a green light to show the days alright, days alright
             G5             C5
Honey now we know.
