Show me a sign lord show me a sign

C                            F                 G
I'm ready to move a mountain with this song of mine

C                                   F          C
You've given me a voice lord you've given me a tune

If you've got something for me to say won't you make it soon
[Chorus]
F          G      C
Maybe I've been a rock

F          G      C
Maybe I've been a tree

F          G      C
Maybe I've been a butterfly

F          G      C
But when will I be me?

F G     C          F    G      C
I am a scorpion I sting like a bee

Someday an eagle someday I'll be free

I'm so far down the ladder oh lord I know

I've been given everything but I got nothing to show

But I am getting ready lord to climb another rung

Do I have to wait around 'till all my songs are sung

Some sing in harmony others sing the blues

C                                 F              G
Some shoot up or shoot it out and others take to booze

C                           F        C
Everybody's trying lord all kinds of suicide

C                               F       G    C
I think I see the road lord but it's no easy ride
