Intro: F  C  Gm  Dm  C  Bb 

Verse 1:
 
F    C   Gm          Dm           C       Bb 
Hear my voice I came out of the woods by choice 
F             C        Gm 
Shelter also gave the shade 
        Dm     C       F 
In the dark I have no name 

F                   C     Gm 
So leave that click in my head 
            Dm           C             Bb 
And I will remember the words that you said 
F                        C     Gm 
With a clouded mind and heavy heart 
         Dm           C           Bb 
But I am sure we will see a new start 

 
Dm C                  F        Bb            
	So when your hopes on fire 
Dm C                  F        Bb 
	But you know your desire 
	              Dm             C 
	Don't hold a glass over the flame 
	                F          Bb 
	Don't let your heart grow cold 
	        Dm          C 
	I will call you by name 
	        F           Bb 
	I will share your load 

Verse 2: 

F               C      Gm 
I rustle long with my youth 
             Dm       C          Bb 
And find it hard to live in the truth 
F                   C        Bb 
But do not tell me what is right 
                Dm      C        F 
When I lose my head, I lose my spine 
F                    C     Gm 
So leave that click in my head 
            Dm           C              Bb 
And I will remember the words that you said 
F                   C         
You brought me out from the cold 
           Dm           C           Bb 
Now how I long, how I long to grow old 

Chorus: 

Break:

Bridge:
 
Dm 
Hold me fast, Hold me fast 
           Bb   F    C  Dm  
Cuz I'm a hopeless wanderer 
Dm 
Hold me fast, Hold me fast 
           Bb  F    C   Dm 
Cuz I'm a hopeless wanderer 
Dm                                      Bb   F  C Dm  
I will learn, I will learn to love the skies I wander 
Am                                      Bb   F  C Dm  
I will learn, I will learn to love the skies I wander 
     Bb   F  C Dm  
The skies I wander
