Intro:
G+G C majorC C G+G C majorC

Verse:
G+G          D MajorD
I thought I'd be an angel
C majorC         G+G
And fly on astral skies
C majorC          G+G       D MajorD  D7D7
I thought I'd wear a fanciful disguise
     C majorC    D MajorD
And It's taken me a lotta time
G+G          C majorC
To find out I'm not one
G+G        D MajorD
An outlaw on the run,
C majorC          G+G
On this side of the sun.

Verse:
G+G        D MajorD
I hoped I'd be a champion
C majorC         G+G
And live without a care
C majorC            G+G
I thought I'd change the world,
     D MajorD    D7D7
Make it just and fair
C majorC            D MajorD
But my youth slipped by before my eyes
G+G       C majorC
Much to my surprise
G+G        D MajorD
Before I had begun,
C majorC          G+G
On this side of the sun.

Verse:
G+G        D MajorD
Out on this end of the wind
C majorC        G+G
Winter's coming 'round the bend
C majorC          G+G
You pray for rain, before you know,
C majorC           D MajorD
You're standin' in a foot of snow
    C majorC         D MajorD
So you pull your coat up to your chin
G+G        C majorC
Pick your shovel up again
G+G             D MajorD
'Cause your work is never done,
C majorC          G+G
On this side of the sun.

Instrumental:
G+G C majorC G+G C majorC

Verse:
G+G        D MajorD
I took it to a fortune teller
C majorC            G+G
I thought that she might help me
C majorC          G+G
She looked into my eyes
      C majorC     D MajorD
And smiled mysteriously
    C majorC     D MajorD
But she didn't know as much as me
G+G         C majorC
I stared back, dejectedly
G+G             D MajorD
'Cause I know where she's from,
C majorC         G+G
This side of the sun.

Verse:
G+G         D MajorD
Out behind these prison walls,
C majorC          G+G
Dark clouds come and hard rains fall
C majorC         G+G
You pause a moment for a dream,
C majorC          D MajorD
They row you gently down the stream
  C majorC      D MajorD
You wake up angry in the night,
G+G            C majorC
Jump up, ready for the fight
G+G          D MajorD
But the war is never won
C majorC          G+G
On this side of the sun.

Verse:
G+G         D MajorD
Now they tell me music
C majorC          G+G
Can free a person's soul
C majorC      G+G  C majorC      D MajorD
So I sing a song everywhere I go
C majorC             D MajorD
But It's not much different than before
G+G         C majorC
I'm still looking for the door
G+G         D MajorD
I wonder if there is one,
C majorC          G+G
