Patti Smith – My Blakean Year (Guitar)

Am
In my blakean year

C        Am
i was so disposed

Am
toward a mission yet unclear

C              Am
advancing pole by pole

Dm                   Am 
fortune breathed into my ear

E                Am
mouthed a simple ode

Dm                 Am
one road is paved in gold

E                Am
one road is just a road

Am
in my blakean year

C            Am
such a woeful schism

Am
the pain of our existence

C            Am
was not as i envisioned

Dm                      Am
boots that trudged from trac to track

E               Am
worn down to the sole

Dm                  Am
one road is paved in gold

E                  Am
one road is just a road

Dm                       Am
boots that trudged from track to track

E                 Am
worn down to the sole

Dm                  Am
one road is paved in gold

E                  Am
one road is just a road

Am
in my blakean year

C               Am
temptation but a hiss

Am
just a shallow spear

E             Am
robed in cowardice

E                      Am
brace yourself for bitter flack

E            Am
for a life sublime

E              Am
a labyrinth of riches

E           Am    
never shall unwind

E                         Am
the threads that bind the pilgrim's sack

E                   Am
are stitched into the blakean back

Dm                     Am
so throw off your stupid cloak

E                   Am
embrace all that you fear

E           Am
in my blakean year
