G5 F5 A5 C5

A one, two, three

G5 F5 A5 C5

G5
I wish I was a fisherman
F5
Tumblin' on the sea
A5
Far away from dry land
C5
And its bitter memories
G5
Castin' out my sweet line
F5
With abandonment and love
A5
No ceiling bearin' down on me
C5
'Cept the starry skys above

G5
With light in my head
F5
With you in my arms
A5
Whoa oh oh

G5
I wish I was the brakeman
F5
On a hurtlin' fevered train
A5
Crashin' head long in to the heartland
C5
Just like a cannon in the rain
G5
Feelin' of the sleepers
F5
The burnin' of the coal
A5
Watchin' towns that flash by me
C5
And a night that's full of soul


G5
With light in my head
F5
With you in my arms
A5
Whoa oh oh


Interlude: G5 F5 A5 C5

G5
And I know I will be loosened
F5
From the bonds that hold me fast
A5
And the chains all around me
C5
Will fall away at last
G5
And on that fine and fateful day
F5
I will take thee in my arms
A5
I will ride on a train
C5
I gonna be the fisherman


G5
With light in my head
F5
With you in my arms
A5
Whoa oh oh


G5
With a light in my head
F5
With you in my arms
A5
Whoa oh oh
C5
Whoa oh yea, yea, yea yea yea yea!!!


G5
With a light in my head
F5
You in my arms...
A5
With light in my head
C5
Ooo ooo

G5
With light in my head
F5
You in my arms...
A5
With light in my head
C5
Woo
