Verse 1
 
D5   D4  D  D2      G6
  I list-en to the wind,
 
       Asus7 A7 Asus7  D5   D4 D D2  G6   Asus7   A7 Asus7
To the wind  of  my   soul,
 
D5           D4  D   D2      G6
  Where I’ll end up, well, I think,
 
    Asus7 A7 Asus7 D5   D4 D D2  G6  Asus7   A7 Asus7
Only God reall-y knows,
 
G       A            G    A   D  Em       G       Em       G   A4  A
  I’ve sat upon the sett-ing sun,   but never, nev-er, nev-er, nev-er,
G      A           G  A   D   D2  D
   I never wanted wat-er once-------,
Em        G    Em  A    G  D5 D4 D D2  G6  Asus7   A7 Asus7  A7 Asus7
    No, never, nev-er, nev-er!
 
D5 D4 D D2  G6  Asus7   A7 Asus7  D5
 
 
 
Verse 2
 
D5    D4  D  D2      G6
   I list-en to my words,
 
         Asus7 A7 Asus7  D5   D4 D D2  G6  Asus7   A7 Asus7
But they fall far   be -low,
 
D5    D4 D   D2    G6
   I let my music take me
 
         Asus7  A7  Asus7 D5   D4 D D2  G6  Asus7  A7 Asus7
Where my heart wants to   go,
 
G      A            G   A     D  Em       G       Em       G   A4  A
   I swam upon the dev-il’s lake,   but never, nev-er, nev-er, nev-er,
G         A              G   A   D   D2  D
   I’ll never make the same mis-take-------,
Em        G    Em  A    G  D5 D4 D D2  G6  Asus7   A7 Asus7   A7 Asus7
    No, never, nev-er, nev-er!
