Capo 3rd fret

Standard (EADGBE)

That morning sky gave me a look

So i left while you were sleeping

that's all it took

and i chalked a line south down the coast

going where my thirst was open

for the things that i dont know

going where i wasnt paying

for the hurt that i owe

one half moon sleeping by the creeks

and a woman put me under

her barn roof for a week

i knew her voice before she spoke

i saw a grave dug by a preacher

just to see what it would make

(Chorus)

so hold high have faith your reasons

(or you'll never get on)

don't you forget you come from nothing

(or you'll never get on)

that wind is calling my name

i wont wait or ill never get on

its not hard to live like a ghost

i just haunt all that ive wanted

and leave what i don't

i dreamt a trail up to the sky

and my brothers built propellers

just to see how far they'd fly

(Chorus)

so hold high have faith your reasons

(or youll never get on)

your flashing sparrows chasing with them

(or youll never get on)

dont you forget you come from nothing

(or youll never get on)

that wind is calling my name

i wont wait or ill never get on
