[A7]A month of nights, a ye[D]ar of days,
[A7]Octobers drifting in[G]to Mays;
I set[A7] my sail as the t[D]ide comes in
And I just ca[G]st my f[A7]ate to the win[D]d.[G][A7][G][D][G][A7]
I sh[A7]ift my course al[D]ong the breeze;
Won't s[A7]ail upwind on me[G]mories.
The e[A7]mpty sky is my b[D]est friend,
And I just c[G]ast my [A7]fate to the wi[D]nd.[G][A7][G][D][G][A7]
Bridge:
Ti[A]me has s[D]uch a way of c[G]hanging
A m[A7]an through[D]out the ye[G]ars;
And n[A]ow I'm [D]rearra[G]nging my l[A]ife through a[D]ll my te[G]ars
A[A9]lone, [D] [A7]a - lo[D]ne.
The[A7]re never was, there cou[D]ldn't be
[A7]A place in time for m[G]en like me
Wh[A7]o'd drink the dark and la[D]ugh the day
And let their w[G]ildest d[A7]reams blow aw[D]ay.[G][A7][G][D][G][A7]
Repeat Bridge:
[A7]So now I'm old, I'm wi[D]se and smart;
I'[A7]m just a man with h[G]alf a heart.
I wo[A7]nder how it m[D]ight have been
Had I not c[G]ast my f[A]ate to the wi[D]nd.[G][A7][G][D][G][A7][G][D]
