Capo 3rd fret
[G] Well a wise man once said to me
If your heart don’t break you wont be free [Em]
[C] But I’m as free as a [D] bird
[C] Flying out [D] over, [C] flying out [D] over the [G] sea
I call out to the wind, but no one comes to let me in [Em]
[C]I hear the [D]thunder
[C] The weight on my [D] shoulders
[C] The weight upon my [D] shoulders crushing [G] me

[Chorus]
[F] Shine [C] down on this [G] mountain
[F] Rain [C] down on my [G] face
[F] Call [C] out to the [G] river
To wash me [D] out to wash me [C] out of this [G] place
Well I wish that I was a sailor man
With the wheel of the ship held in my hand [Em]
[C] But I don’t like the [D] water
[C] I’m more like the [D] anchor
[C] I wish I was the [D] anchor in [G] me
Sometimes I wish I was a sin
So the ones I love wouldn’t let me [Em] in
[C] I wouldn’t have to [D] try
[C] To find the [D] answers
[C] To give them all the [D] answers they [G] need
[repeat CHORUS]
Instrumental (Rhythm: Chords from chorus repeated)
Well a wise man once said to me
If your heart don’t break you wont be [Em] free
[C] But I’m as free as a [D] bird
[C] Flying out [D] over
[C] Flying out [D] over the [G] sea
