D5     G5       C5          F5
My life is extraordinary bare 
D5              G5                   C5      F5
   I fought the fear and chased the pain.
D5     G5         C5           F5
My life doesnt need to be explained 
D5           G5                C5    F5
   I chose to walk the line as one
D5       G5      C5           F5 
Sometimes as I live upon my island 
D5           G5              C5     F5
Cut off from emotion and its pain 
     D5        G5        C5           F5
Ohh, thats when I am tempted by the waters 
D5                    G5            C5     F5
The waters that I can take me far away 

Chorus:
               D5      G5                C5   F5
So Ill just keep on walking down this open road 
D5       G5                  C5     F5
Hoping someone somewhere needs me 
               D5      G5               C5    F5
So Ill just keep on walking down this open road 
D5      G5                  C5    F5                
Talking to the man who knows me 
          C5    F5           C5   F5
Yes he knows me, the man is me 

D5     G5          C5               F5
My life was once full of peoples faces 
D5               G5                   C5   F5
Brought to me by love which isnt strange 
   D5     G5           C5            F5
Oh my life had the goodness of blue waters 
 D5             G5             C5      F5
A days a day for all I used to say 
D5       G5       C5               F5
Sometimes I can sit and cry my heart out 
D5               G5           C5   F5
Drowning in my autocratic ways .
    D5        G5        C5             F5
Oh, thats when I am tempted by the waters 
D5               G5             C5  F5
Waters that can take me far away 
              D5      G5                C5    F5
So Ill just keep on walking down this open road 
D5       G5                  C5     F5
Hoping someone somewhere needs me 

               D5      G5               C5     F5
So Ill just keep on walking down this open road 
D5      G5                  C5     F5 
Talking to the man who knows me 
          C5    F5           C5   F5
Yes he knows me, the man is me.
