verse 1: 

Em                        Bm        
   Driving on through the windmills 
       G       D         A 
   and some of them were still. 
Em                        Bm 
   Sometimes it's hard to catch the wind 
       G       D       A 
   and bend it to your will. 


Em                  Bm 
   Even though it's hard to know 
        G       D     A 
   just how the story ends. 
Em                         Bm 
   The road is long and it takes its time 
      G        D     A   
   on that you can depend. 




Bm        A           G         A         G          E 
   Lay me down in the river and wash this place some way. 
Bm          A         G           A            E       G      A        E 
   Break me down like sand from a stone, maybe I'll be whole again one day. 
E        A 
   Lay me down, 
G         Bm          A       G     A 
   Lay me down, maybe I'll be whole again. 
E        A 
   Lay me down, 
G         Bm          A       G     A         E          
   Lay me down, maybe I'll be whole again one day. 



verse 2: 

Em                   Bm 
   Somewhere between heaven and hell 
     G          D          A 
   a soul knows where it's been. 
Em                      Bm 
   I want to feel my spirits lifted up 
      G        D       A 
   to catch my breath again.
