Chords

[Intro] Hit an open G on the upbeat. C C F C F C G G (x2) [Verse 1]
F             C
[tab]F           C
 Blowin' my way

F            C                  G
 Sweepin' me back, back here to stay

F               C
 Can winners be losers?

F                    C
 Runnin' on the same track

F                    C                G
 While some head for glory, others we crash
[Chorus]
        C                  F            C
Well it breaks my heart to see you this way

    F         C               G   
The beauty in life where's it gone

    C                         F      C
And somebody told me you were doin' okay

    F         C               G
But somehow I guess they were wrong
[Verse 2]
F        C
 My isolation

F                       C
 Now there's a sobering thought

F          C                    G
 A minute alone, a lifetime too long

F                     C
 See the face in this mirror

F                 C
 So pale it could crack

F            C                    G
 Desperately wantin' the color it lacks
[Chorus]
        C                  F            C
Well it breaks my heart to see you this way

    F         C               G   
The beauty in life where's it gone

    C                         F      C
And somebody told me you were doin' okay

    F         C               G
But somehow I guess they were wrong
[Verse 3]
       F
So you drank with the lost souls

    C
For too many years

F                        C
Tied to their ankles now crippled with fear

F                           Am
Never been righteous though seldom were wrong

G
Life's only life with you in this song
C F Dm G Am F Dm G
F                       C
 Now there's an ocean between

F                      C
 Where I am and where I want to be

F                  C               
 So you prayers in doubt

              G
Doubt not for me
[Chorus]
        C                  F            C
Well it breaks my heart to see you this way

    F         C               G   
The beauty in life where's it gone

    C                         F      C
And somebody told me you were doin' okay

    F         C               G
But somehow I guess they were wrong

        C                  F            C
Well it breaks my heart to see you this way

    F         C               G   
The beauty in life where's it gone

    C                         F      C
And somebody told me you were doin' okay

    F         C               G
But somehow I guess they were wrong
[Bridge]
F             C
 Whistles the wind

F             C  
 Whistles the wind

F             C
 Whistles the wind

F             C
 Whistles the wind
[Final Verse]
              F
Though you'll find your way out

            C
But there's no goin' now

      F
Every woman and child

          C
Drags you down for the dive

         F
It's not safe being free

           Am
Can't give back what you feel

               G                        C
He said you'll always be in heaven with me
