Intro:
F C G F

F                               C
I'm a sailing down here on the wind
        G                         F
when i met you, and I fell away again.
F                               C
Like a train in a verse down a dark road
              G                             F
carrying the whole load, just rattling the whole way home.

F                    Em          G
Have you fixed your eyes to the wind?
                         Am  F             C       G     F
Will you let it pull you in again, on the way back in
               Em               G
I'm a bit run down here at the moment
                       Am F  C G 
Let me think about it babe, 
        F          C       G       F
let me roll it


 F                                   C
There's a cold wind blowing down my old road
                                 G
down the back streets where the pines grow
                         F
as the river splits the undertoes.
F                                               
But I'd be lying to myself if I said I didn't mind
         C                                    G
Leave it hanging on the line, lost inside my head,
                         F
is this the way I'll be denied again?

F               Em          G
So I'll set my eyes on the wind
               Am F      C           G
but it wont be easy to leave it all again.
F               Em               G
Just a bit run down here on the sea
                 Am F       C      G           
There's just a stranger, living in me


F  F  C  G x 4

F               Em           G
As you set your eyes to the wind
                     Am    F        
and you see me float away again
          C           G
have you lost it on a friend?
F               Em                G
Just a bit run down here at the moment
         Am    F       C      G
I'm all alone here, living in darkness.
