Intro
F# E [Gm#] B X2
F#I wish I was a fishermanE, tumbling on the seas
[Gm#] B
Far away from dry land, and it's bitter memories
F#Casting you my sweet light wiEth abandonment and love
[Gm#] B
No ceiling staring down on me, save the starry sky above
CHORUS
F# E [Gm#] B
With light in my hair, you in my arms, woo woo ooh
F#I wish I was the brake manE, on a Hartland diesel train
[Gm#] B
Crashing headlong into the heartland, like a cannon in the rain
F#With the beating of the sleepers, and thEe burning of the coal
[Gm#] B
Counting towns flashing by me, in a night that's full of soul
:CHORUS:
F#Oh I know I will be looseneEd, from bonds that hold me tight
[Gm#] B
And the chains all hung around me will fall away at last
F#And on that fine and fateful day I wilEl take thee in my arms
[Gm#] B
I will ride the night train, and I will be the fisherman
CHORUS
