Mott the Hoople - The journey

All the ^Cchanges they will ^Ftake their time In the ^Gmorning dust they'll be^Fgin to rise ^CHalfway to a ^Fborderline Well, I can ^Gsee the end for the ^Fvery first time

Well, I ^Cknow I lost ^D/F#just a little bit on the ^Fjourney^G When my ^Cmind's been split by little ^D/F#things that didn't fit on the ^Fway^G Oh, I ^Cknow I lost ^D/F#just a little bit on the ^Fjourney 'Cos I'm ^Gtrying so hard,^C to get home^{F G}

There's a ^Cman on a bridge called ^Fsuicide And he ^Ghides his head while the ^Fcoast is dark And the ^Criver drags and the ^Fwater sways ^GOh, his rags've seen ^Fbetter days

And I ^Cguess he ^D/F#lost just a little bit on the ^Fjourney^G For his ^Cmind was split by little ^D/F#things that didn't fit on the ^Fway^G Yes, I ^Cknow he ^D/F#lost just a little bit on the ^Fjourney

^Dm For every ^Cgift he had to ^G/Bgive^{G Am} For every ^Glife yea^D/F#h, he had to live^{F Dm}Well, they meant ^Cnothing without^D/F# her,^F to guide him on his way

Well he ^Ftold her he ^Cwas a ^Gleader of a ^Fwell respec^Cted ^Gload But ^Fwhen he tried ^Cto ^Gleave her, well she ^Flooked right down ^Cher nose^{G Bb} Many times he tried to make her^C, believe in herself But ^Gshe wouldn't listen to a word he said

Well he ^Ffollowed her ^Cthough the ^Gdarkness, ^Fall the chances ^CI ^Gtake He ^Ffollowed her ^Cthough the ^Gwilderness, her ^Fmystery to ^Cbreak^{G Bb} Many times he tried to make her^C, believe in herself But ^Gshe wouldn't listen to a word he said

So for ^C40 days and for ^F40 nights Well they ^Gtied my hands they can ^Fsee the light And the ^Cangel screamed in my ^Fnightmare ride And the ^Gchanges left yeah but ^Fthey will take their time

And I ^Cguess I lost ^D/F#just a little bit on the ^Fjourney^G Yes I ^Cknow I lost ^D/F#just a little bit on the ^Fway^G Oh, I ^Cknow I lost ^D/F#just a little bit ^Fon the journey^G Oh, I ^Cknow I lost ^D/F#just a little bit ^Fon the journey^G Yes I ^Cguess I lost ^D/F#just a little bit ^Fon the way^G Yes I ^Cknow I lost ^D/F#just a little bit ^Fon the journey^G
