C
I left my home
F G C
Just searchin' for my dreams
C C/B Am7 Am7/G
Bein' in Mississippi
D/F# G
Was my last mile it seems
F C
All them dreams don't go around
C/B Am7 Am7/G D/F#
On the wheel of fortune much
C C/B Am7
And they don't come around at all
Am7/G F G C
Unless you got that lucky touch
[Verse 2]
C
Yes, and I remember Shannon
F G C
And her sunset orange hair
C C/B Am7 Am7/G
And I remember river banks
D/F# G
And love so soft and fair
F C C/B
But I left her for a sunrise
Am7 Am7/G D/F#
That I have never seen
C C/B Am7 Am7/G
And saw instead a bottle
F G C
Now my whole life's a dream
[Bridge]
F G
Yeah, but many men have walked
C C/B Am7 Am7/G
Down an unlucky road
F G
And many men have worn
C C/B Am7 Am7/G
A few holes in their soul
F G
And I know the years have turned me
C C/B Am7 Am7/G
Just a little cold
F G
Sometimes I just wished
C
I might have known
[Instrumental]

[Verse 3]
C
Well he staggers down the sidewalk
F G C
Fixed on broken days
C C/B Am7 Am7/G
He reaches for his bottle, Lord
D/F# G
And silently he says
F C
You know them dreams don't go round
C/B Am7 Am7/G D/F#
On the wheel of fortune, much
C C/B Am7
And they don't come round at all
F G Am
Unless you got that lucky touch
F G C
Yeah, they don't come around at all
F G Am
Unless you got that lucky touch
F G C
Dah dah dah dah dah dah dah dah dah...fade
