Verse 1
----------
F
I wish I was a fisherman, tumbling on the seas
C
Far away from dry land, and it's bitter memories
F
Casting you my sweet light with abandonment and love
C
No ceiling staring down on me, save the starry sky above
Chorus
-------
Am
With light in my hair, you in my arms...... woo
Verse 2
--------
F
I wish I was the brake man, on a Hartland diesel train
C
Crashing headlong into the heartland, like a cannon in the rain
F
With the beating of the sleepers, and the burning of the coal
C
Counting towns flashing by me, in a night that's full of soul
Chorus
-------
Am
With light in my hair, you in my arms...... woo
Verse 3
--------
F
Oh I know I will be loosened, from bonds that hold me tight
C
And the chains all hung around me will fall away at last
F
And on that fine and fateful day I will take thee in my arms
C
I will ride the night train, and I will be the fisherman
Chorus
-------
Am
