LEADING ME BACK TO YOU
by: Joe Sample & Michael Franks (1988)
from the Joe Sample album "Spellbound"
Fm7 / Fm/Bb / | Ebma7(?) / Cm7 (?) / | (2X)
Fm9 Fm9/Bb Ebma7
I guess I flew too high
Fm9 Fm9/Bb Cm7 Bbm7 A7 (or Eb7)
Icarus falling from the sky
Abma7 Abm-ma7 (G7+5) Cm7
But in the dense rain forest heat
F7 Fm7
Somehow I landed on my feet
Fm7/Bb Cm7 / / Gm7 | Cm7 / Cm7 Bm7
With the will to sur - vive.
Bbm7 Bbm7b5 (Eb7-9)
And in the heart of darkness
Abm7 Abm9 (Db7-9 or Db9)
Without a chance of rescue
(G7sus)
I never quit, I just refused
Cma7 / / / | / / Dm7 Em7
I thought of you
Fm7 Fm7/Bb
Somehow I know I'd find you
(Abma7/Bb)(Bb13-9) Ebma7 G7+5
Following my heart's com - pass
Abma7
And your love
Am7-5 D7(?-9)Gma7
Your love was leading me back to you.
Fm7 Fm7/Bb
Now the ordeal is over
? Ebma7 ?
Now I can feel your heartbeat
Abma7
And your love
D7 Gma7
Your love is leading me back to you.
Fm7 / Fm/Bb / | Ebma7(?) / Cm7(?) / | (2X)
Fm9 Fm9/Bb Ebma7
Daylight be - gan to show
Fm9 Fm9/Bb Cm7 / / / | Bbm7 / / A7
A jungle painted by Rou - sseau
Abma7 Abm-ma7 Cm7
I walked a - round in circles lost
F7 Fm7
Above the spider-monkeys laughed
Fm7/Bb Cm7 / / Gm7 | Cm7 / Cm7 Bm7|
At my failure be - low.
Bbm7 Bbm7b5
And in the heart of darkness
Abm7 Abm9
Without a chance of rescue
?
I never quit, I just refused
Cma7 / / / | / / Dm7 Em7
I thought of you
Fm7 Fm7/Bb
Somehow I know I'd find you
Ebma7
Following my heart's compass
Abma7
And your love
D7 Gma7
Your love was leading me back to you.
Fm7 Fm7/Bb
Now the ordeal is over
Ebma7
Now I can feel your heartbeat
Abma7
And your love
D7 Gma7
Your love is leading me back to you.
Fm7 / Fm/Bb / | Ebma7 / Cm7 / | (repeat and fade)
