Lyrics

[Intro]

| - | - | - | - |

[Verse 1]
G    A     D/F#
 Sometimes a   drifter,
C          G     D/F#
Sometimes a peaceful man.
D/F#          A           D/F#
    Years and years of talkin',
      C          D/F# G
Though little to understand.
C     G    D/F#
Where does love go
A   C   D/F#
When it flies away?
C        D/F#  G
 I would think that it would last
C            G  D/F#     G
 Till the end of    time.

[Verse 2]
G    A      D/F#
 Sometimes a    drunkard,
C          G  D/F#
Sometimes a holy  man.
D/F#          A           D/F#
    Years and years of falling,
    C          D/F# G
With little to understand.
C   G  D/F#      A C
Why do we  think we are
D/F#         C               D/F#
The only ones that really matter,
G          C
To everyone in the whole,
G    D/F#      G
 Wide    world?

[Verse 3]
G    A      D/F#
 Sometimes a    husband,
C          G
Sometimes a single dad.
F#m D/F#          A           D/F#
        Years and years of trying
   C             D/F#
To not be so dark    and sad.
G C    G    D/F#      A C   D/F#
  When does this Life become    easier?
C        D/F#  G
 I would think all of this
    C              G    D/F#  G
Work would be worth something.

[Verse 4]
G    A        D/F#
 Sometimes I'm    happy,
  C         G
Often times not so.
D/F# D/F#          A           D/F#
         Years and years of wandering,
C                D/F#   G
Not knowing where    to go.
C   G  D/F#
How do you do?
A    C D/F#
 Good  to  know you.
C       D/F#  G          C
 May we find, in our togetherness,
G  D/F#
 Honest joy.
G C   G  D/F#
  How do you do?
A   C  D/F#
Good to    know you.
G  D/F#
 Honest joy.
G C      D/F#        G    C
  May we find, in our togetherness,
G D/F# G
Honest joy.

Often times not so.
Years and years of wandering,
Not knowing where    to go.
How do you do?
Good  to  know you.
May we find, in our togetherness,
Honest joy.
How do you do?
Good to    know you.
Honest joy.
May we find, in our togetherness,
Honest joy.
