Mott The Hoople – The Journey (Guitar)

        C                 F
All the changes they will take their time

       G                      F
In the morning dust they'll begin to rise

C            F
Halfway to a borderline

            G                   F
Well, I can see the end for the very first time

        C           D/F#                     F      G
Well, I know I lost just a little bit on the journey

        C                           D/F#                          F  G
When my mind's been split by little things that didn't fit on the way

      C           D/F#                     F
Oh, I know I lost just a little bit on the journey

         G              C           F G
'Cos I'm trying so hard, to get home

          C                      F
There's a man on a bridge called suicide

       G                        F
And he hides his head while the coast is dark

        C                   F
And the river drags and the water sways

G                    F
Oh, his rags've seen better days

      C        D/F#                          F      G
And I guess he lost just a little bit on the journey

        C                        D/F#                          F  G
For his mind was split by little things that didn't fit on the way

       C       D/F#                          F
Yes, I know he lost just a little bit on the journey

Dm          C              G/B G
  For every gift he had to give

Am          G       D/F#             F
  For every life yeah, he had to live

Dm               C              D/F# F
Well, they meant nothing without her, to guide him on his way

        F           C     G           F          C   G
Well he told her he was a leader of a well respected load

    F             C  G                   F                 C       G
But when he tried to leave her, well she looked right down her nose

Bb                               C
  Many times he tried to make her, believe in herself

    G
But she wouldn't listen to a word he said

        F            C          G         F               C G
Well he followed her though the darkness, all the chances I take

   F            C          G               F          C    G
He followed her though the wilderness, her mystery to break

Bb                               C
  Many times he tried to make her, believe in herself

    G
But she wouldn't listen to a word he said

       C               F
So for 40 days and for 40 nights

          G                      F
Well they tied my hands they can see the light

        C                    F
And the angel screamed in my nightmare ride

        G                     F
And the changes left yeah but they will take their time

      C            D/F#                     F      G
And I guess I lost just a little bit on the journey

      C           D/F#                     F  G
Yes I know I lost just a little bit on the way

      C           D/F#              F             G
Oh, I know I lost just a little bit on the journey

      C           D/F#              F             G
Oh, I know I lost just a little bit on the journey

      C            D/F#              F         G
Yes I guess I lost just a little bit on the way

      C           D/F#              F             G
Yes I know I lost just a little bit on the journey
