Capo 2nd fret

Standard (EADGBE)

X2

 I keep on running but I can't get to the mountain

Behind me lie the years that I mis-spent

 And I've been sitting like a flower in the fountain

 When all the love I'm gonna need is heaven sent

 Gonna try my best to get there

 But I can't afford the bus fare

the storm that's rolling over

 Man, it makes me wanna cry

When I was told The streets were paved with gold

 And it be known time is getting on when we were young

It's alright, if you dance with me tonight

 We'll fight the dying of the light and catch the sun

Woke up sleeping on a train that was bound for nowhere

The echoes that I could hear were all my own

The world had turned I'd become a stranger

 Got tired of watching all the flowers turn to stone

 Gonna try my best to get there

 But I can't afford the bus fare

the storm that's rolling over

 Man, it makes me wanna cry

 Feel the cold against my shoulder

 When it comes on in the winter

 And it seems to last forever

 And it makes me wanna, makes me wanna cry

When I was told The streets were paved with gold

 And it be known time is getting on when we were young

It's alright, if you dance with me tonight

 We'll fight the dying of the light and catch the sun

 Gonna try my best to get there

the storm that's rolling over

 Man, it makes me wanna cry

When I was told The streets were paved with gold

 And it be known time is getting on when we were young

It's alright, if you dance with me tonight

 We'll fight the dying of the light and catch the sun

 And the cold against my shoulder

 When it comes on in the winter

Man, it makes me wanna cry

 And the cold against my shoulder

 And seems to last forever

 And it makes me wanna, makes me wanna cry
