Intro 
Ab  Ebm7  Ab  Ebm7 

Verse 1 
Ab                  Ebm 
 take me for granted, i think that i could stand it 
Db 
 after all these rough seas 
       Ab 
Left me reckless and abandoned 
Gb                      Bbm 
 say the spirits willing, chance a new beginning 
B 
Break down the cold front 
        A 
Give me peace and understanding 

Bridge 
C#m                   G#m 
And you wait, and you wonder 
         A                                 E 
Will she still beat the drum and bring the thunder 
         B                    C#m 
Will she still be the star to see me through 
         A              A/G            F   G 
'cause i can't steer my heart clear of you 

     E                    G7       
No i can't steer my heart clear of you 
         C                   Am7 
It's the way it's been, ever since you sailed 
                   B7 
Out of a storm and into view 
             Em              Em/D              C 
And should i drift away, the compass holds the clue 
                Ab 
You control the weather 
      Bb                            Csus 
And i can't steer my heart clear of you 

instrumental 
Ab  Ebm7  Ab  Ebm7 

Verse 2 
Ab                   Ebm 
 make me your penance, show me your innocence 
Db 
 everything is history 
         Ab 
From the aching to the pleasure 
Gb                    Bbm 
 we enjoy the torture, the slow pain that it taught us 
B 
Everything gets twisted 
       A 
Let me burn or bring me water 

Bridge 
C#m                   G#m 
And you wait, and you wonder 
         A                                 E 
Will she still beat the drum and bring the thunder 
         B                    C#m 
Will she still be the star to see me through 
         A              A/G            F   G 
'cause i can't steer my heart clear of you

It's the way it's been, ever since you sailed 
                   B7 
Out of a storm and into view 
             Em              Em/D              C 
And should i drift away, the compass holds the clue 
                Ab 
You control the weather
