Riff x2
Into the Verse

Fmaj7                    C/G
 Dreaming up this golden grain
          C walk Cadd2     G
 I'm falling from this shack
  Fmaj7                  C/G
 talking sweet to the queen
           C walk Cadd2           G
 wishing I was riding with the jacks
    Am                Em
 walking proud and lonesome now
           C/G              Fmaj7
 oh I'm yearning for the pack
      Am               Fmaj7
 but I'd never say "I love you," dear
          G*
 just to hear you say it back


Riff x2

  Fmaj7                   C/G
 I've heard the road to every truth
        C walk Cadd2   G
 it's just a cul-de-sac
   Fmaj7                           C/G
 there's ladies and the lions there
         C walk Cadd2     C/G
 which I know its just an act
      Am                        Em
 you search the world for the milk of the pearl
          C/G              Fmaj7
 she'll always takes it black
              Am              Fmaj7
 but you'll love her till it all goes dark
          G*
 you'll love her even after that . . .
