Pre-Chorus 

C Em 
They say It's a tall tale, G D/F# 
A knot in the clouds. X2 Em Am C 
It's nothing more than nothing is in some ones eyes. D/F# G D/F# Em 
But, nothing less than nothing is in yours. 
G D/F# E 
nothing is in yours. 


 
C G 
A voice cried out, the wilderness 
Em D/F#  
There you were, a bolt from the blue 
C G 
I stationed my net and assisted you 
Em D/F#  
You taught me how to tread on the blue

Or if I stumble in the thorns G D/F# E 
I'll be planted in the soil 
C D/F# 
bring a hundredfold
