G F Am C

A one, two, three

G F Am C

G
I wish I was a fisherman
F
Tumblin' on the sea
Am
Far away from dry land
C
And its bitter memories
G
Castin' out my sweet line
F
With abandonment and love
Am
No ceiling bearin' down on me
C
'Cept the starry skys above

G
With light in my head
F
With you in my arms
Am
Whoa oh oh

G
I wish I was the brakeman
F
On a hurtlin' fevered train
Am
Crashin' head long in to the heartland
C
Just like a cannon in the rain
G
Feelin' of the sleepers
F
The burnin' of the coal
Am
Watchin' towns that flash by me
C
And a night that's full of soul


G
With light in my head
F
With you in my arms
Am
Whoa oh oh


Interlude: G F Am C

G
And I know I will be loosened
F
From the bonds that hold me fast
Am
And the chains all around me
C
Will fall away at last
G
And on that fine and fateful day
F
I will take thee in my arms
Am
I will ride on a train
C
I gonna be the fisherman


G
With light in my head
F
With you in my arms
Am
Whoa oh oh


G
With a light in my head
F
With you in my arms
Am
Whoa oh oh
C
Whoa oh yea, yea, yea yea yea yea!!!


G
With a light in my head
F
You in my arms...
Am
With light in my head
C
Ooo ooo

G
With light in my head
F
You in my arms...
Am
With light in my head
C
Woo
