[Fm] [Bb] [F]
I'm the year ahead of [Eb] myself [Dm] these [Bb] days And I'm no [Dm] more as [F] strong
[Bb] [F] I'm sailing straight ahead of time And again I'm never safe
But the tide [Eb] has [Dm] turned, my [Bb] heart goes in [F] vain
And [Bb] I won't break, and I won't bend But someday soon we'll [F] sail away
To [C] innocence and [Bb] the bitter [F] end And [Eb] I won't [Bb] break, and I won't bend
The last breath we [F] ever take We're [C] gonna get back to simple [Bb] life
[F] again
[Ab] Come [F] on now

[Eb] [Bb] You

[Eb] [Bb]
[F] pray, God, for this blind folk [Bb] I'm gonna take you [F] from this place
Till we're free [Eb] from this falling [Dm] chain And your heart will find a [F] place
My fate [Bb] is like hammered steel On [F] a shallow, cruel rock
You'll walk around [Eb] after [Bb] midnight You'll never [F] have to stop

The last breath we [F] ever take We're gonna [C] get back to simple life [F] again
And [Bb] I won't break, [Eb] and I [Bb] won't bend [Gm] The [Bb] last breath we [F] ever take
We're gonna [C] get back to simple life [Bb] again
