{c:1st time whistling;  2nd time uke riff}


I [F#m]wanted love, I [A]needed love
[B]Most of all, [C#]most of all
[F#m]Someone said true [A]love was dead
And I’m [B]bound to fall, [C#]bound to fall
For [F#m] you  / [A] oh what can I / [B] do yeah /  [C#]


[F#m]Take my badge but my [A]heart remains
[B]Lovin' you, [C#]baby child
[F#m]Tighten up [A]on your reins
You're [B]runnin' wild, [C#]runnin' wild
It's [F#m]true…


{c:Riff 2 |: [F#m]  [C#]/ [F#m]  [C#]/ [F#m]  [C#]/ [A]  [B]  :|  [F#m]↓:}


[F#m]Sick for days, so [A]many ways
I'm [B]achin' now, I'm [C#]achin' now
It's [F#m]times like these I [A]need relief
Please [B]show me how, oh [C#]show me how
To get [F#m]right [A]yes outta [B]sight [C#]


When [F#m]I was young and [A]moving fast
Nothing [B]slowed me down, oh [C#]slowed me down
[F#m]Now I let the [A]others pass
I've [B]come around, oh [C#]come around
'cause I've [F#m]found…

|            [F#m]  [C#]/ [F#m]  [C#]/ [F#m]  [C#]/ [A]  [B]


[F#m]Living just to keep [C#]going
[F#m]Going just to be [C#]sane
[F#m]All the while never [C#]knowing
[A]  [B]Such a shame


[F#m]I don't need to get [C#]steady
[F#m]I know just how I [C#]feel
[F#m]Telling you to be [C#]ready
[A]  [B]My dear
