Ride the blue wind high and free
                             G    D
she'll lead you down through misery
                    G       D
leave you low, come time to go

alone and low as low can be

If I had a nickel I'd find a game

If I won a dollar I'd make it rain

If it rained an ocean I'd drink it dry
           G G4 G        D
and lay me down dissatisfied

Legs to walk and thoughts to fly

eyes to laugh and lips to cry

a restless tongue to classify

all born to grow and grown to die

So tell my baby I said so long

tell my mother I did no wrong

tell my brother to watch his own

I'm chained upon the face of time

feelin' full of foolish rhyme

there ain't no dark till something shines

I'm bound to leave this dark behind
