[fingerpicking]
[Verse 1]
C F F C
Sometimes I feel like I am leaving life behind
C Bm Am G F C
My hands are moving faster than the movement of my mind
C F F C
Thoughts and generations of my dreams are yet unborn
C Bm Am G F Am
I hope that I will find them 'fore my moving gets too worn
F G F C
If only I could live to see the dawning of the dawn
[strumming]
C Bb F C Bb F C Bb F C Bb F
[Verse 2]
C F F C
So we go on moving trying to make this image real
C Bm Am G F C
Straining every nerve not knowing what we really feel
C F F C
Straining every nerve ending and everybody sees
C Bm Am G F Am
That what they read in the Rolling Stone has really come to be
F G F C
And trying to avoid a taste of that reality
[strumming]
C Bb F C Bb F C Bb F C Bb F
[Verse 3]
C F F C
On an early New York mornin' a mirror in the hall
C Bm Am G F C
Showed to me a face I didn't know at all
C F F C
Lines were drawn around a pair of eyes that opened wide
C Bm Am G F Am
When I looked into the mouth there was nothing left inside
F G F C
So I walked into the little room and whistled like a sigh
[strumming]
C Bb F C Bb F C Bb F C Bb F
[Verse 4]
C F F C
As dawn light closed around me my head was still in gear
C Bm Am G F C
Thinking thoughts of playing more and singing loud and clear
C F F C
Trying to reach a friend somewhere and make that person smile
C Bm Am G F Am
Maybe pull myself away from that old lonesome mile
F G F C
That often comes to haunt me in the morning
[strumming]
C Bb F C Bb F C Bb F C Bb F
[Bridge]
(Strumming)
Em Am G
All my friends keep telling me that it would be a shame
Dm F C Em
To break up such a grand success and tear apart a name
Em Am G
But all I know is what I feel whenever I'm not playin'
Dm F C G
Emptiness ain't where it's at and neither's feeling pain
[Verse 5]
C F F C
Well now what is going to happen now is anybody's guess
C Bm Am G F C
If I can't spend my time with love I guess I need a rest
C F F C
Time is getting late now and the sun is getting low
C Bm Am G F Am
My body's getting tired of carry-in' another's load
F G F C
And sunshine's waiting for me a little further down the road
[strumming]
C Bb F C Bb F C Bb F C Bb F
[Outro picking]
C Bm Am G F G C
