G F Am C 

A one, two, three 

G F Am C 

G 
I wish I was a fisherman 
F 
Tumblin' on the sea 
Am 
Far away from dry land 
C 
And its bitter memories 
G 
Castin' out my sweet line 
F 
With abandonment and love 
Am 
No ceiling bearin' down on me 
C 
'Cept the starry skys above 

G 
With light in my head 
F 
With you in my arms 
Am 
Whoa oh oh 

G 
I wish I was the brakeman 
F 
On a hurtlin' fevered train 
Am 
Crashin' head long in to the heartland 
C 
Just like a cannon in the rain 
G 
Feelin' of the sleepers 
F 
The burnin' of the coal 
Am 
Watchin' towns that flash by me 
C 
And a night that's full of soul 


G 
With light in my head 
F 
With you in my arms 
Am 
Whoa oh oh 


Interlude: G F Am C 

G 
And I know I will be loosened 
F 
From the bonds that hold me fast 
Am 
And the chains all around me 
C 
Will fall away at last 
G 
And on that fine and fateful day 
F 
I will take thee in my arms 
Am 
I will ride on a train 
C 
I gonna be the fisherman 


G 
With light in my head 
F 
With you in my arms 
Am 
Whoa oh oh 


G 
With a light in my head 
F 
With you in my arms 
Am 
Whoa oh oh 
C 
Whoa oh yea, yea, yea yea yea yea!!! 


G 
With a light in my head 
F 
You in my arms... 
Am 
With light in my head 
C 
Ooo ooo 

G 
With light in my head 
F 
You in my arms... 
Am 
With light in my head 
C 
Woo
