Verse 1 
 C            G/B     Am       C/G   F              Em       Am  C/G 
Oh, I?m on my way, I know I am,    somewhere not so far from here, 
 F             E     Am        Am/G 
All I know is all I feel right now,  
           D            F     Am (Riff) 
I feel a power growing in my hair 
   C          G/B      Am    Am/G     F         Em       Am  C/G 
Sitting on my own, not by my-self, everybody?s here with me, 
F                 E        Am      Am/G 
I don?t need to touch your face to know, 
             D              F      Am 
And I don?t need to use my eyes to see 


Verse 2 
Bm              E            A          D 
   I keep on wondering if I sleep too long, 
Bm                E           A    G   F  Em  D 
   Will I always wake up the same, or so, 
A  Bm                E             A         D 
      And keep on wondering if I sleep too long, 
Bm              E7         A   G   D     F 
   Will I even wake up a-gain, or some-thing

Verse 3 
 C            G/B     Am        C/G 
Oh, I?m on my way, I know I am, 
      F                   Em        Am   C/G 
But times there were when I thought not, 
    F              E          Am   Am/G 
Bleeding half my soul in bad compan-y, 
             D                F         Am (Riff) 
I thank the moon I had the strength to stop 
      C              G/B      Am       C/G 
Now, I?m not making love to anyone?s wishes, 
  F             Em    Am   C/G 
Only for that light I see, 
             F              E        Am     Am/G 
?Cause when I?m dead and lowered low in my grave, 
                     D                 F      Am 
That?s gonna be the only thing that?s left of me 



Verse 4 
Bm            E               A    D 
   And, if I make it to the water-side, 
Bm               E        A    G  F     Em  D 
   Will I even find me a boat, or so...? 
A  Bm             E              A    D 
      And, if I make it to the water-side, 
Bm                   E7         A    G   D     F 
   I?ll be sure to write you a note, or some-thing 


Verse 5 
C            G/B     Am       C/G   F              Em       Am  C/G 
Oh, I?m on my way, I know I am,    somewhere not so far from here, 
 F             E     Am        Am/G 
All I know is all I feel right now,  
           D            F     Am (Riff) 
I feel a power growing in my hair 
      C            G/B      Am 
Oh, life is like a maze of doors, 
         Am/G  F            Em         Am  C/G 
And they all open from the side you?re on, 
          F           E 
Just keep on pushing hard,  
     Am         Am/G               D                  F       D 
Boy, try as you may, you?re gonna wind up where you started from, 
                                  F 
You?re gonna wind up where you started from
