E (A) E F#m
What are they seeing --------- When they look in each others eyes?
E F#m
What are they feeling ------------ When they see each other smile?
A E
Is it a love ------------- I've never known
A E
Or an emotion ---------- That I've outgrown?
G#m F#m7 A
Did I take a wrong turn in ---------- On life's winding road?
B7 E E7 E
Won't somebody help me find the ------- Find the right way to go?
C#m G#m C#m G#m
My life need some correction --------- Alteration and direction.
A B E
Won't somebody come with me - for a while, for a while, in case I fall
E F#m E F#m A E A E G#m A B E
E F#m
What is the secret ----------- Of this tie that binds?
E F#m
Two souls in communion ---------- Both body and mind.
A E
Is it special magic -------- Or just the nature of things?
A E
Conceived of great spirit -------- Not for beggars but kings.
G#m A
You who have found it ------------ Please help me along.
B7 E F#m7
I'm a man, I'm a man ----------- I'm not made out of stone.
C#m G#m C#m G#m
My needs they are simple -------- I don't want many things,
A B E
But I surely want to ride on them wings of love -- One more time.
A E A E
(The outro improv just flows on the pattern of -- A & E ---- classic Pigpen!)
