Intro: D    A    G   (x2) 

D                            G                    
I'm looking for somebody who might have come this-a-way 
D                               Em                    
Could have been an hour ago, or maybe yesterday 
G                            D               
She's pretty as a flower and shining as a star 
G                     Bm           A                 
I never thought she'd ever come so far 

D                           G              
I'm tryin' to find a woman, friendly as can be 
D                               Em                
She's never met a stranger, I'm sure you would agree 
G                              D              
And if you got to talkin', she probably made you laugh 
G           Bm           A     
Here she is in this photograph 


D  A        G 
We were the wild ones 
D 
The young guns 
Em              A 
Restless as the wind 
D  A        G 
We were the wild ones 
D 
Now I run 
A 
And when I'm done 
G                                               
The wild ones will run again 

D                            G 
I went on the road alone and left her there behind 
D                             Em 
I was thinkin' of myself, she said she didn't mind 
G                               D 
But love is like a songbird and every song she sings 
G                   Bm              A 
You'll hear a sweet reminder of her wings 

 
G                                A 
Maybe she's across the street or half a world away 
G           Bm          A 
I've got to find her if only just to say...
