Capo 3

  G5
  here i go again
               C5    G5
  back to that feeling
                E5     D5
  of no worthy cause
              G5
  to carry me on
 

  
                         G5
'cause my hearts been skipping
                   C5   G5
like a flat rock on water
              E5    D5
and with each ripple
                G5
the further i'm gone

 

G5           E5  D5  C5
some say i'm sinking
       D5        G5
to the muddy bottom
                E5 D5 C5
But somehow i'm sailing
    D5              G5
to shores of white sand



*instrumental*
*hum tune of verses here while playing the chords for verses*


            G5
i feel it raining
                        C5    G5
and the crosswinds are changing
             E5   D5
blowing my chances
            G5
to make it alone
 

                     G5
but should you get lonesome
                      C5    G5
and your child need a mother
                  E5     D5
just look for my traces
                    G5
on shores of white sand
 
G5            E5  D5  C5
some say i'm sinking
          D5       G5
to the muddy bottom
                E5  D5  C5
But somehow i'm sailing
     D5              G5
to shores of white sand


*instrumental*
*hum tune of verses and play chords for verses here*

to the muddy bottom
But somehow i'm sailing
to shores of white sand

some say i'm sinking
to the muddy bottom
But somehow i'm sailing
to shores of white sand
