INTRO (same as chorus):
[D MajorD] [A augmentedA] [G+G]
[D MajorD] [A augmentedA] [D MajorD] [A augmentedA] [D MajorD]
No wage can [D MajorD] buy what the world never wanted
Hearts press [G+G] on anyway undaunted
Where there's [D MajorD] smoke there's fire, faith has charm
But faith can de[A augmentedA]stroy
By and [D MajorD] by all the threads are sewn
Dark [G+G] clouds make their presence known
[D MajorD] Stand by the fire and just [A augmentedA] hope
That it doesn't [D MajorD] burn out
CHORUS
When the [D MajorD] world is not what it [A augmentedA] seems
On the [G+G] outside looking in on a dream
Don't let the barricades of [D MajorD] life keep the wild spirit [A augmentedA] still
When the [D MajorD] world around caves [A augmentedA] in
Lights will [G+G] shine, let your life begin
Don't let the barricades of [D MajorD] life keep the [Asus2Asus2] wild spirit [D MajorD] still
GUITAR/FIDDLE BREAK (same as intro):
[D MajorD] [A augmentedA] [G+G]
[D MajorD] [A augmentedA] [D MajorD] [A augmentedA] [D MajorD]
No matter [D MajorD] what you set out to find
There's compe[G+G]tition down the line
The [D MajorD] crime of one might be salt of the earth to [A augmentedA] nine
Makes no [D MajorD] difference what others say and do
The path goes [G+G] on showing the way for you
The [D MajorD] sign says redemption ahead
[A augmentedA] Straight on [D MajorD] through
CHORUS
When the [D MajorD] world is not what it [A augmentedA] seems
On the [G+G] outside looking in on a dream
Don't let the barricades of [D MajorD] life keep the wild spirit [A augmentedA] still
When the [D MajorD] world around caves [A augmentedA] in
Lights will [G+G] shine, let your life begin
Don't let the barricades of [D MajorD] life keep the [Asus2Asus2] wild spirit [D MajorD] still
Don't let the [G+G] barricades of [D MajorD] life keep the [Asus2Asus2] wild spirit [D MajorD] still
GUITAR/FIDDLE BREAK (same as intro):
[D MajorD] [A augmentedA] [G+G]
