When I Swing By

[Verse]
B
 Well here I go
         E               F#
Spinning silk across the skyline
B                         A             F#
 Follow the flow of every corner, every street

B
 Places to go
        E             F#
But I’m generous with my time
B                   A           F#
 Responsibility can be so bittersweet

[Pre-chorus]
Abm           E                   B       F#
 And when the clouds are blotting out the sky
Abm        E                A             F#
 I swing upon on the silver lining

[Chorus]
         B       C#m
And when I swing by
     E               F#
I’ll sling away your troubles
          B       C#m      E       F#
Yeah when I swing by you’ll shine

      B         C#m
And I know that life
    E          F#
Can often be a struggle
           Abm     F#      A
But you’ll soon be feelin’ fine

When I swing by

[Instrumental]
B C#m E F# (x2)

[Verse]
B
 Wisdom is earned
       E             F#
In the dark I keep believing
B                           A              F#
 A fallen guide can be like losing part of you

B
 I try to learn
     E             F#
Even when I take a beating
B                           A                 F#
 Ambition weaves a web that failure can’t get through

[Pre-chorus]
Abm           E                   B       F#
 And when the clouds are blotting out the sky
Abm        E                A             F#
 I swing upon on the silver lining

[Chorus]
         B       C#m
And when I swing by
     E               F#
I’ll sling away your troubles
          B       C#m      E       F#
Yeah when I swing by you’ll shine

      B         C#m
And I know that life
    E          F#
Can often be a struggle
           Abm     F#      A
But you’ll soon be feelin’ fine

When I swing by

[Interlude]
Abm    E
 And I know it’s
B     F#
  Not easy
Abm  E       A
  So much is gone

Abm       E
 But keep growing
B     F#
 Keep dreaming
Abm     E       A     F#
 And go pass it on

[Chorus]
         B       C#m
And when I swing by
     E               F#
I’ll sling away your troubles
          B       C#m      E       F#
Yeah when I swing by you’ll shine

      B         C#m
And I know that life
    E          F#
Can often be a struggle
           Abm     F#      A
But you’ll soon be feelin’ fine
