VERSE 1
*********
     A
As I wake up everyday with no new songs to play
                                        G
Feelin` like I ought to pack my bag and run
   A
My imagination flies to some other sunny skies
                                        G
Where I felt so good and everything was done
BASS
       F#m         E          G             D
And my time was my own and my heart felt so free

Come on

********
        A
I don`t mind a little rain but it doesn`t seem the same
                                             G
When the clouds shut out your beauty from my eyes
          A
There`s a storm inside my head and I know it doesn`t lead
                                  G
To a clearer day when nobody will cry

         A
So bring fire and bring steel for you know the way I feel
                                 G
Bring a silver horse to carry me away
       A
I`m no stranger I`m a friend and my pain will never end
                                             G
Till the world will let us live our lives as one
