Come Wander With Me

Am C G Am (4x) Am C G Am I came to this world in a seaside town Am C G Am where the water could cool your broken body out Am C G Am I learned you can rise over the cards in your hand Am C G Am Mama was a woman and a hard-workin' man Am C G Am Now everyone I know had to make their own bed Am C G Am Try to do as good as their fathers did for them Am C G Am I never knew mine so I bandaged the hurt Am C G Am I pretended that my daddy was a bank robber F G Am F Say ooh-ooh-ooh (s-s-say) F G Am Ooh-ooh-ooh F G Am Oh but you, you always said, C G F "you're just too good a ship to wreck." Am You said, "never mind nothin', F there's a summertime humming C G once the bandages come off." F G Am Yes, and you always believed C G F there was some kind of diamond in me Am F Oh but if you still burn every night in the hurt, C G I know a place where the pain doesn't reach Am C G Come wander with me Am C G Am Come wander with me Am C G Am Now I tried to believe but it's so hard to know Am C G Am How to do right, Rudy, with the seeds that we've sown Am C G Am But the voices are loud and the miles are long Am C G Am And heroes are a hard thing to find when you're gone F G Am F So say ooh-ooh-ooh (s-say) F G Am Ooh-ooh-ooh F G Am Oh but you, you always said, C G F "you're just too good a ship to wreck." Am You said, "never mind nothin', F there's a summertime humming C G once the bandages come off." F G Am Yes, and you always believed C G F there was some kind of diamond in me Am F Oh but if you still burn every night in the hurt, C G I know a place where the pain doesn't reach Am C G Come wander with me Am C G Am Come wander with me Am Now I hope the things that trouble me, G they don't catch you or put you on your knees C F But I found out time and work don't make you a man Am Because time didn't teach me anything, G and the working only broke my hands C F And when someday came I did not understand Am C G Am U-understand, Am C G Am understand F G Am Oh but you, you always said, C F "you're just too good a ship to wreck." Am You said, "never mind nothin', F there's a summertime humming C G once the bandages come off." F G Am Yes, and you always believed C G F there was some kind of diamond in me Am F Oh but if you still burn every night in the hurt, C G I know a place where the pain doesn't reach C Come wander with me C G (It's hard to sleep, I can bring you a dream, Am F my baby, come wander with me) C Come wander with me (it's hard to sleep, G I can bring you a dream, Am F my baby, come wander with me) C Come wander with me (it's hard to sleep, G I can bring you a dream, Am F my baby, come wander with me) C Come wander with me (it's hard to sleep, G I can bring you a dream, Am F my baby, come wander with me) C Just past the door
