verse 1 

 D                  G         D  Dsus 
Ride the blue wind high and free 
D                        G       D  Dsus 
It'll lead you down through misery 
 D               G          D  
Leave you low come time to go 
           G              D 
Alone and low as low can be

verse 2 

D                       G      D  Dsus  
If I had a nickel, I'd find a game 
D                       G       D  Dsus 
If I won a dollar, I'd make it rain 
    D                            G       D  
And if it rained an ocean, I'd drink it dry 
            G            D 
And lay me down dissatisfied

verse 3 

      D                 G         D  Dsus  
It's legs to walk and thought to fly  
D                  G       D  Dsus 
Eyes to laugh and lips to cry 
D                      G    D  
A restless tongue to classify 
              G                D 
All born to grow and grown to die

VERSE 5 

      D               G       D  Dsus  
I'm chained upon the face of time

Feelin' full of foolish rhyme
