_ [Dm] _ _ _ _ [F] Many's _
_ _ _ _ _ _ [Dm] _ _
_ [D] _ _ _ _ _ [Bb] the [Dm] time [C] I've [F] been _ [C]
mistaken _ _ [A] And _ _ [Dm] _
_ many _ [A] _ times [Dm] _
confused
_ _ _ _ Yes, [Bb] and I [Dm] often [C] felt _ [F] _
_ [C] _ _ forsaken [F] _ _ [Em] _
And [Dm] _ _ certainly [A] _ _
_ _ [Dm] _ _ _ _ _ [F]
misused
_ _ [Bb] _ _ _ _ [C] _
_ _ _ [Bb] I'm _ _ alright, [F] _ _ I'm [Bb] just _ [F]
weary, [C] Joe, _ [A] _ [Dm] my bones _ [D] _ _ _ _ _ [G] _ _
_ _ [C] Still you don't [Gm] expect to [F] be [C] bright [G] and _ _ bone
[C] _ _ [F] _ [Bb] So _ [F] far [C] away _ [Db] from [Dm] home _ _ [Bb] So _ _ _ _
[F] _ far _ [C] away _ [F]
from home
_ _ _ [G] _ _
[Dm] _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ [F] _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ [D] _ _ _ _ _
And I don't know [Bb] a [F] soul [C] who's [F] not been [C] _ _ [Gm] battered [A] I _ don't [Dm] have a friend who _ [A] _ _ _ [D] feels at _ _ _ [Dm] ease
I don't [Bb] know a dream [C] that's not _ [F] been [C] _
_ _ shattered [F] _ _ [Em] _
[Dm] Or _ driven [A] to _ _ [Dm] its _ _ _ [F] _ knees
Oh, [Bb] but it's hard, _ [C] _ _
_ _ _ [Bb] it's hard _ [F] For _ _ _ [Bb] we've lived so [C] well, [A] _ so [Dm] long
_ [D] _ _ _ _ _ _ [G] _
_ _ [C] Still when I think of [F] the road [C] _ [G] we're _ _ traveling [C] _ [F] on [Bb] I _ [F] wonder _ [C] what's [Db] gone _ [Dm]
wrong
_ _ [Bb] _ _ Can't help it, [F] I _ wonder [C] _ _ _
what's gone [F] wrong _ _ _ _
[G] _ _ _ [F] _ _ _ _ _
I dreamed I was dying
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
I dreamed [Dm] that my [C] soul _ _ _ rose _ _ [Dm] _
unexpectedly _ _ [Bm] _ And looking [C] back down at me
_ [Bb] I smiled [F] _ _ _ [C] _ reassuringly _ _ _ And I dreamed [F] I was _ _ _ flying
_ [Fm] _ _ [F] _
_ And [D] high [C] above all _ _ minds _ _ [Dm] we clearly see [Ab] _ [F] A [C] statue of liberty _ [Bb] _ _ _
_ [F] sailing away [C] to sea
_ _ _ And I dreamed I _ _ was [F] _ _
_ flying _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _
We [Bb] didn't come [F] here [C] _ _
[F] on [C] the Mayflower _ _ [G]
We came [Dm] in a ship in a [A] blood [D] _ red [Dm] _ moon
_ _ We came [Bb] in the _
[F] ages [C] most [F] _ _ _ [C]
uncertain _ _ [F] _ now [Dm] And we sing our [A] land _ _
_ [Dm] to _ [F] you _ _
But [Bb] it's _ all [C] _ _
_ _ _ [Gm] _ _ right, [F] though _ _ We [Bb] _ can't [F] be _ [C] _ [Db] forever _ _ [Dm] _ _
_ [D] blessed
_ _ _ _ [G] _
_ _ [C] Still _ tomorrow's gonna [F] be _ [G] another _ _ working _ _ [F] day And [Bb] I'm [F] trying to [C] get [A] some _ [Dm] _
_ rest
[Bb] _ _ That's all [F] I'm _ trying [C] _ _
to get [F] some _ rest _
_ _ [D] _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ [C] _ _ _ [F] _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ [Dm] _ _ _
_ _ [D] _ _ _ _ [F] _ _
