Chords

C                    Cmaj7         Am7             C6
I've spent my whole lifetime in a world where the sunshine

     F            Em          Dm
made excuses for not hanging 'round

     G            F              Em           Dm   Dm7
I've squandered emotions on the slightest of notions

         G         G7           C
and the first easy loving I've found

C            Cmaj7            Am7            C6
Soon all the good times, the gay times and play times

     F            Em          Dm    Dm7
like colors run together and fade

     G         F         Em           Dm
Oh Lord if you hear me, touch me and hold me 

     G         F         Em           Dm
and keep me from blowing away
[instrumental break then modulate to D]
         D                   Dmaj7         Bm7          D6
There've been times that I've trembled and my mind's remembered

     G              F#m      Em    Em7
the days that just crumbled away

     A            G             F#m         Em
With nothing to show but these lines that I know

     A                      D
are beginning to show in my face

   D             Dmaj7            Bm7           D6
So Lord if you're listenin' you know I'm no christian

     G               F#m      Em    Em7
and I ain't got much coming to me

              A         G         F#m           Em
But won't you send down some sunshine, throw out a lifeline

     G         A         D           
And keep me from blowing away

  A         G         F#m           Em
Lord if you hear me, touch me and hold me,

     G       A            G     D     
and keep me from blowing away
