 [Guitar tacit]
 When I close my eyes
 I can see forever
 And the leaves on the trees
 Are a brilliant green
          Cadd9 G   Cadd9
 My heart hears the sound
      Cadd9 G    D
 Of a dis - tant calling
     Am7        D11          [Riff 1]
 The wind on my face says to me
             Am7     D11
 I've got to live my life
   C  C/B      Cadd9 G Cadd9  Cadd9 G D  Cadd9 G Cadd9  Cadd9 G D
   di - fferently
 
 
 [Chorus]
        Cadd9 G  Cadd9
 When I close my eyes
       Cadd9 G  D
 I can see   forever
         Cadd9  G      Em7
 And the leaves on the trees
       Cadd9 G    D
 Are a brill-iant green
          Cadd9 G   Cadd9
 My heart hears the sound
      Cadd9 G    D
 Of a dis - tant calling
     Am7        D11          [Riff 1]
 The wind on my face says to me
             Am7     D11
 I've got to live my life
   C  C/B      Cadd9 G Cadd9  Cadd9 G D  Cadd9 G Cadd9  Cadd9 G D
   di - fferently
 
 
 [Verse]
           C      Em
 I say goodbye to spring
         G       D
 And farewell to summer
    C     Em      D      Dsus4 D
 Hello to falling leaves
    C          Em
 My life looks small
        G       D
 In the face of change
     C          Em             D  Dsus4 D
 The wind feels too strong for me
 
           C      Em
 I say goodbye to safe
     G      D
 Goodbye to certain
    C     Em      D   Dsus4 D
 Hello to what is new
          C        Em
 It's the best and worst
    G     D
 Of times together
        C          Em          D    Dsus4 D
 In the storm I forget what is true
 
 [Chorus]
 
 I say okay I don't know
 Okay I'm afraid
 I'll take it one step at a time
 It may take a while
 For the fog to burn off
 Time be my friend for a while
 
 [Chorus]
 [Bridge/solo]
   Am7 D11 [Riff 1]
   Am7 D11 [Riff 1]
   Am7 D11 C C/B  Cadd9 G Cadd9  Cadd9 G D  Cadd9 G Cadd9  Cadd9 G D
 
 I say goodbye to control
 It's such an illusion
 Hello to the truth of my need
 The promise of presence
 Is all that I have now
 Sometimes I don't believe
 
 [Chorus]
 
        Cadd9 G  Cadd9
 When I close my eyes
