HEADING FOR THE LIGHT- The Traveling Wilburys
G A C D
G A
I've wandered around with nothing more than time on my hands
C D
I was lost in the night with no sight of you
C D
And at times it was so blue and lonely
G C D
Heading for the light
Been close to the edge, hanging by my fingernails
I've rolled and I've tumbled through the roses and the thorns
And I couldn't see the sign that warned me, I'm
Heading for the light
CHORUS #1:
riff Em D C G
Ooh, I didn't see that big black cloud hanging over me
riff Em D C
And when the rain came down I was nearly drowned
A G
I didn't know the mess I was in
My shoes are wearing out from walking down this same highway
I don't see nothing new but I feel a lot of change
And I get the strangest feeling, as I'm
Heading for the light ...SOLO
CHORUS #2:
Ooh, my hands were tied by jokers and fools on either side
But still I kept on till the worst had gone
Now I see the hole I was in
REPEAT THIRD VERSE
I see the sun ahead, I ain't never looking back
All the dreams are coming true as I think of you
Now there's nothing in the way to stop me
Heading for the light
C D G
Now there's nothing in the way to stop me, heading for the light
A C G
RIFF:
