C majorC     FF  C majorC  G7G7  C majorC G+G E7E7   A minorAm  E MajorE    A minorAm
Many's the time I've been mistaken and many times confused
C majorC      FF C majorC G7G7  C majorC G+G E7E7   A minorAm  E7E7   A minorAm
Yes and I've often felt forsaken and certainly misused
      FF G+G     FF C majorC        FF   C majorC G+G A minorAm  A7A7
Aw, but I'm alright, I'm alright, I'm just weary to my bones
D7D7    G7G7         C majorC   G7G7 D MajorD   G+G
Still you don't expect to be bright and bon vivant
C majorC FF  C majorC  G+G  E7E7    A minorAm  Dm7Dm7 G13G13 C majorC
So far away from home, so far away from home

C majorC         FF  C majorC   G7G7 C majorC  G+G  E7E7
And I don't know a soul who's not been battered
        A minorAm     E7E7    A minorAm
I don't have a friend who feels at ease
C majorC       FF   C majorC   G7G7 C majorC  G+G   E7E7   A minorAm   E7E7   A minorAm
I don't know a dream that's not been shattered or driven to it's knees
       FF G+G     FF C majorC      FF    C majorC  G+G A minorAm  A7A7
Aw, but it's alright, it's alright for we lived so well so long
D7D7  G7G7         C majorC  G7G7  D MajorD     G+G
Still when I think of the road we're travelin' on
C majorC FF   C majorC   G+G  E7E7 A minorAm  Dm7Dm7      C majorC   G13G13    C majorC
I wonder what's gone wrong, I can't help but wonder what's gone wrong

C majorC
And I dreamed I was dying
         G+G  G7G7    A minorAm   D7D7
I dreamed that my soul rose unexpectedly
         G7G7   FF C majorC        G+G
And looking back down on me smiled reassuringly
          C majorC
And I dreamed I was flying
       G+G    G7G7     A minorAm    D7D7
And high up above my eyes could clearly see
       G7G7    C majorC        G+G
The Statue of Liberty - sailing away to sea
G7G7         C majorC
And I dreamed I was flying

C majorC         FF  C majorC  G+G  C majorC    G+G
For we come on the ship they call Mayflower
E7E7       A minorAm    E7E7     A minorAm
We come on the ship that sailed the moon
  C majorC      FF C majorC G+G  C majorC G+G    E7E7    A minorAm   E7E7    A minorAm
We come in the ages most uncertain hours and sing an American Tune
       FF G+G      FF C majorC     FF   C majorC G+G E7E7  A minorAm
Aw, but it's alright, it's alright you can't be forever blessed
D7D7   G+G         C majorC G7G7  D MajorD    G+G
Still tomorrow's gonna be another working day
C majorC    FF   C majorC G+G    E7E7 A minorAm    Dm7Dm7   C majorC     G13G13   C majorC
And I'm trying to get some rest, that's all I'm trying to get some rest
