The Believer

Capo II

(C) I can’t imagine, (Em) that’s my (Fsus2/a) problem

I’m searching (F) always for better (C) weather

(C) The coast is (Em) rough and the tide is (Fsus/a) running

(F) I chase my shadow till I (C) remember

The fine and free days have gone to storming

I spend my time with joy and sorrow

But one is dying and one is crying

I may not be around tomorrow

My dearest friends are total strangers

I call them heroes, they call me lonely

I wish them wisdom and self-destruction

And hope someday they’ll come to know me

The forest grows around my door now

But I am dreaming of a meadow

Where I may lie in frosty sunlight

Far between the earth a stray shadow

Though I’m not a God for certain

There are steps we all must follow

He’s a beggar and a king

He’s a falcon and a swallow
