[Intro]
Em Dadd4add9 Am C Em
[Verse 1]
Em
Set your eyes low, set your eyes
Dadd4add9
oh west against the morning,
Am
as I had no warning of this,
C
when they come to wake me up.
[Verse 2]
Em
Set your sights love, set your sights
Dadd4add9
oh far across the ocean,
Am
as if I never touch the ocean,
C D/F#
I would only come back home ...to sleep.
[Chorus]
D/F# Am C G D/F#
But oh my soul(?), am I alright, am I alright?
D/F# Am C G Em
Oh my soul, am I alright, am I alright?
Dadd4add9 Am C
[Verse 3]
Em
Cut your ties love, cut your ties,
Dadd4add9
And say I never knew you,
Am
they'll see right through you.
C
And you cannot run and hide.
[Verse 4]
Em
But keep the faith love, keep the faith,
Dadd4add9
though I know it's gonna bring you high(?),
Am
know it's gonna bring you down,
C D/F#
But though the devil may not take you, you never will escape this love.
[Chorus]
D/F# Am C G D/F#
But oh my soul, am I alright, am I alright.
D/F# Am C G D/F#
oh my soul, am I alright, am I alright.
[Bridge]
D/F# Am C G D/F#
Still this burning in my throat, is going through all of the motions,
D/F# Am C
And I will some day come to my home,
G D/F# Em
and maybe one day I will reach the ocean,
Dadd4add9 Am C Em
Oh, oh. Oh, Ohhhhhhh.
(That's it. The second to last Em doesn't have the bottom E string (-3-2-) section,
and the final Dadd4add9 has variations with the top e string being played (-0-5-).)
