Gordon Lightfoot - Endless Wire
CAPO: 2nd Fret
[INTRO:] E Em
[VERSE 1:]
C D Em
I ain't got nothing to hide
C D Em
My mind is an endless wire
C D Em
I got both feet on the ground
C D Em
I ain't got no one for hire
[VERSE 2:]
C D Em
I ain't got a thing to show
C D Em
My lives have all expired
C D Em
So don't go fooling around
C D Em
And set my wheels afire
[CHORUS:]
Am D
Down in the dark of a burnt out soul
Gmaj7 Cmaj7
There's a few good second hand dreams
Am D Gmaj7 E7
Deep in the dark of a heavenly night with you
Am D
Down in the black of a bottomless hole
Gmaj7 Cmaj7
There's a few good second hand scenes
Am D
Deep in the dark of a heavenly blue
Gmaj7 Cmaj7 Amaj7 E Em
Where the sea runs green
[VERSE 3:]
C D Em
I ain't got nothing to give
C D Em
My life is an endless climb
C D Em
My love's a paperback dream
C D Em
I don't have nothing but time
[VERSE 4:]
C D Em
I ain't got a thing to show
C D Em
I don't know my own name
C D Em
So don't go fooling around
C D Em
And set my wheels aflame
[INSTRUMENTAL:] C D Em (8x)
[CHORUS:]
Am D
Down in the dark of a beat out soul
Gmaj7 Cmaj7
There's a few good second hand dreams
Am D Gmaj7 E7
Deep in the dark of a heavenly night with you
Am D
Down in the black of a bottomless hole
Gmaj7 Cmaj7
There's a few good second hand scenes
Am D
Deep in the dark of a heavenly blue
Gmaj7 Cmaj7 Amaj7 E Em
Where the sea runs green

I ain't got nothing to hide
C D Em
My mind is an endless wire
C D Em
I got both feet on the ground

I don't have no one for hire
