Standard (EADGBE)

The sun would shine upon my face

if I could only slow this pace

but I will not see the light today

things to do and bills to pay

Chorus

In my dreams I will sleep like a baby

Brother is that your rifle there?

and do you know the man in the middle of the crosshairs?

no I do not know my enemy's name

so much easier to kill him that way

Chorus x2

Bridge

I will take the long way home

I will take the long way.... home....

Harmonica solo

diatonic)

The sap is rising in the trees

and I will fall upon my knees

'cause the songbird tells me as she sings

machines will not make sweeter dreams

Chorus x3
