INTRO
F# all through the verse
All my life I've been caged in
Kept away from the storm
Silver spoons and crimson moons
Are all I have here to show
B[F#]ut breezing, t[A#]hrough my Spanish sprin[B]gtime, th[F#]e keys to freedom,
B(one strum) A#(one strum) C#(one strum)
they fall to me, they're making me believe
chorus
[B]That if we run
[F#] [C#]
[B]Mama wouldn't let us fall
[F#] [C#]
[B]And if we go
[F#] [C#]
[B]Won't you take me down the river lay me on your shore, [F#]tell me dreams my
love, [C#]oh.
all F# again
Ninety days I have left here
In, grass that's greener than gold
Fly with me in my reverie
You're all I have here to hold
B[F#]ut breezing, t[A#]hrough my Spanish sprin[B]gtime, th[F#]e keys to freedom,
B(one strum) A#(one strum) C# (one strum)
they fall to me, they're making me believe
[B]That if we run
[F#] [C#]
[B]Mama wouldn't let us fall
[F#] [C#]
[B]And if we go
[F#] [C#]
[B]Won't you take me down the river lay me on your shore, [F#]tell me dreams my
love, [C#]oh.
BRIDGE
and [D#]I can [C/E]see the [F#]world, from a v[G#]iew that nev[F#]er s[C/E]tops
[D#]And if we[C/E] hold hands we can[F#] do this, b[G#]e a dream that [F#]life [C/E]forgot
[D#]This is a place that ne[C/E]ver sl[F#]eeps, wh[G#]ere your dreams are b[F#]rought to[C/E] life
[D#]So just come with me, [C/E]come with me, c[F#]ome! T[G#]ake a le[F#]ap of faith[C/E] tonight!
[B]Close your eyes, d[F#/A#]on't look down, d[C#]on't let go...
final chorus
