Ohhh... It takes cold dry eyes...
C majorC
Ohhh... In your quiet eyes problems arose...
C majorC
It doesn't take a man, man at all, to shine this light
C majorC
All it takes, a green light to show that the day's alright,
C majorC
Down... down the road, Cause now you know, now you know
C majorC
It takes a woman you breeze when you follow the road, my dream
G+G
C majorC
And on this quiet night, only starry skies, it carries us home
C majorC
It will take you to the winds, to find the man, the life I've once known
C majorC
My feet are on the ground, head is in the sound, baby we need, we're flying free,
C majorC
I knew we would, I knew we would, I knew we would.
C majorC
(Harmonica solo)
C majorC
It takes the freedom you go, when you follow the road, we're hangin on
C majorC
And on these quiet days, only sunny rays, it carries me home, way beyond
C majorC
Take me to the winds to find the man, life I once known
C majorC
My feet are on the ground, my head is in the sound, and baby we need, we're flying free
C majorC
I knew we could, I knew we would, I knew we could, I knew we would.
C majorC
(Harmonica solo)
C majorC
Oh... it takes a couple lifetimes
C majorC
Oh... in your quiet eyes the problems return to my old home.
C majorC
It doesn't take a man, man at all, to shine this light
C majorC
All it takes is a green light to show the days alright, days alright
C majorC
Honey now we know.
