Capo 3rd fret

Standard (EADGBE)

That morning sky gave me a look

 So i left while you were sleeping

 that's all it took

and i chalked a line south down the coast

 going where my thirst was open

 for the things that i dont know

 going where i wasnt paying

 for the hurt that i owe

one half moon sleeping by the creeks

 and a woman put me under

 her barn roof for a week

i knew her voice before she spoke

 i saw a grave dug by a preacher

 just to see what it would make

(Chorus)

 so hold high have faith your reasons

 (or you'll never get on)

 don't you forget you come from nothing

 (or you'll never get on)

 that wind is calling my name

 i wont wait or ill never get on

its not hard to live like a ghost

 i just haunt all that ive wanted

 and leave what i don't

i dreamt a trail up to the sky

 and my brothers built propellers

 just to see how far they'd fly

(Chorus)

 so hold high have faith your reasons

 (or youll never get on)

 your flashing sparrows chasing with them

 (or youll never get on)

 dont you forget you come from nothing

 (or youll never get on)

 that wind is calling my name

 i wont wait or ill never get on
