Verse 1
 C            G/B     Am       C/G   F              Em       Am  C/G
Oh, I’m on my way, I know I am,    somewhere not so far from here,
 F             E     Am        Am/G
All I know is all I feel right now, 
           D            F     Am (Riff)
I feel a power growing in my hair
   C          G/B      Am    Am/G     F         Em       Am  C/G
Sitting on my own, not by my-self, everybody’s here with me,
F                 E        Am      Am/G
I don’t need to touch your face to know,
             D              F      Am
And I don’t need to use my eyes to see



Verse 2
Bm              E            A          D
   I keep on wondering if I sleep too long,
Bm                E           A    G   F  Em  D
   Will I always wake up the same, or so,
A  Bm                E             A         D
      And keep on wondering if I sleep too long,
Bm              E7         A   G   D     F
   Will I even wake up a-gain, or some-thing




Intro again





Verse 3
 C            G/B     Am        C/G
Oh, I’m on my way, I know I am,
      F                   Em        Am   C/G
But times there were when I thought not,
    F              E          Am   Am/G
Bleeding half my soul in bad compan-y,
             D                F         Am (Riff)
I thank the moon I had the strength to stop
      C              G/B      Am       C/G
Now, I’m not making love to anyone’s wishes,
  F             Em    Am   C/G
Only for that light I see,
             F              E        Am     Am/G
‘Cause when I’m dead and lowered low in my grave,
                     D                 F      Am
That’s gonna be the only thing that’s left of me



Verse 4
Bm            E               A    D
   And, if I make it to the water-side,
Bm               E        A    G  F     Em  D
   Will I even find me a boat, or so...?
A  Bm             E              A    D
      And, if I make it to the water-side,
Bm                   E7         A    G   D     F
   I’ll be sure to write you a note, or some-thing


Verse 5
C            G/B     Am       C/G   F              Em       Am  C/G
Oh, I’m on my way, I know I am,    somewhere not so far from here,
 F             E     Am        Am/G
All I know is all I feel right now, 
           D            F     Am (Riff)
I feel a power growing in my hair
      C            G/B      Am
Oh, life is like a maze of doors,
         Am/G  F            Em         Am  C/G
And they all open from the side you’re on,
          F           E
Just keep on pushing hard, 
     Am         Am/G               D                  F       D
Boy, try as you may, you’re gonna wind up where you started from,
                                  F
You’re gonna wind up where you started from
