Lyrics
I’ve wan dered a round with noth ing more than time on my hands.
I was lost in the night with no sight of you.
And at times it was so blue and lone ly head ing for the light.
I’ve wan dered a round with noth ing more than time on my hands.
I was lost in the night with no sight of you.
And at times it was so blue and lone ly head ing for the light.
Oh, I (F#)did n’t see that big black cloud hang ing o (B)ver me.
And when the (F#)rain came down I was near ly drowned.
I (C#7)did n’t know the mess I was in.
Now there’s noth (Em)ing in the way to stop me head ing for the light.
