Chords for John Parr Live : St Elmo's Fire 1985

[C] _ _ [B] _ [Am] _ _ _ _ _
_ [E] MTV John [A#] Parr live special _ _ _
_ _ [N] _ I'm going to do a song that I wrote for a film called San [Am] Elmo's Fire to Finish
_ [G] If you bear with me 10 expensive seconds on [Am] the satellite
I'd like to just fill you in on a little secret about that song
It was _ inspired by [F] a guy called Rick [Am] Hansen, 27 year old wheelchair [G] athlete
who broke his back when he was [Am] a young man
and he decided that he was going to go on and still pursue his goal
and currently he's going around the world on a 26,000 mile journey
just him and a wheelchair
and he's going to make it
I thank each and every one of you for making this song number one
but most of all I dedicate this song to Rick [A] Hansen _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ [D] You _ _ [E] _ _
_ _ [A] _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ don't [E] see the writing on [A] the wall _ _ _ _
[D] _ _ [A] Passing by, _ moving [D] straight ahead you knew [A] it all _ _ _ _
But [F#m] maybe sometime if [D] you feel the pain
You'll [F#m] find you're all alone
[D] Everything has [E] changed
[A] Play the game
You know you can't [D] quit until [A] it's won
So _ _
[D] _ _ [A] draw on
_ Only [G] you can do what [A] must be done _ _ _ _
You [F#m] know there's some way [D] you're a lot like me
[F#m] Just a prisoner
[D] And you're trying to [E] break free
Let me [F#] hear you
I can see a new horizon
Underneath a blazing sky
I'll be where the eagles [B] fly
In a higher [F#] _ _ _ _ _ emotion
All I need is this pair of wheels
Take me where my future's alight
And set them on [D] fire
_ Oh
[C#] _ _
_ _ [A] _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ Burnin' up
_ Don't [D] notice how far that I [A] can go
_ Guess how far [D] I'll go
[A] Soon be home
_ Only [E] just a few miles [A] down the road _ _ _ _
_ [F#m] I can make it
[D] I know I can
You [F#m] broke the boy in me
[D] But you won't [G] break the man
[F#] I can see a new horizon
Underneath a blazing sky
I'll be where the eagles fly
In a higher _ emotion
_ _ _ All I need is this pair of wheels
Take me where my future's alight
And set them on fire
I can climb the highest mountain
Cross the wildest sea
I can be a saint and most fire
Burnin' in [D] me
_ _ Burnin' in [C#] me
_ [A] _ Just _ _ _
_ _ [D] _ _ _ _ [E] _ _
_ _ [A] _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ [D] _ _ _ _ [E] _ _
_ _ [A] _ _ once in his life
_ _ [D] _ A man [E] has his time
_ [A] _ And my time is _
_ _ [D] _ I'm comin'
[E] _ _
_ _ [F#] I can hear the music playin'
I can see the planets fly
Be where the man [B] again
I hope [F#] I am
_ _ _ In motion
All I need is this pair of wheels
Take me where my future's [B] alight
And set [F#] them on fire
I can see a new horizon
Underneath a blazing sky
I'll be where the eagles fly
In a higher _ _ _ _ _ emotion
All I [C#] need is this pair of [F#] wheels
Take me where my future's [B] alight
And set [F#] them on fire
_ Highest mountain
Cross the wildest sea
I can be a saint and most fire
Burnin' in me
_ _ _ [B] _ _
[F#] _ Burnin' in me
I can feel it _ burnin'
_ Burnin' _ _ _ _ in me _
_ _ _ _ Pullin' me up
Pullin' me down
Pullin' me up from where this time
I'm _ _ [D] _ _ _ _ _ _
