Capo 3rd fret

Standard (EADGBE)

Verse 1

 When my blood runs warm with an old red wine

 I miss the life that I left behind

 And when I hear the sound of the blackbird's cry

 I know I left in the nick of time

Verse 2

 Well this road I'm on's gonna turn to sand

 And leave me lost in a far-off land

 So let me ride the wind 'till I don't look back

 And forget the life that I almost had

Pre-chorus

 If I wander 'till I die

 May I know whose hands I'm in

 And if my home I'll never find

Then let me live again

CHORUS x 2

 The longer I run then the less that I find

 Selling my soul for a nickel and dime

Breaking my heart to keep singing these rhymes

 And losing again

Verse 3

 Tell my brother please not to look for me

 I ain't the man that I used to be

 But if my saviour comes could you let him know

 I've gone away for to save my soul

Pre-chorus

CHORUS x 2
