wasn t born to follow chords
the byrds ( carole king/Gerry goffin )

G C 2

x G C G C
oh , i’d rather go and journey , where the diamond crest is flowing and
G C G C
run across the valley , beneath the sacred mountain and
D Dsus2 D
wander through the forest
C
where the trees have leaves of prisms , and break the light in colors ,
D G C G C
that no one knows the names of

G C G C
and when it’s time i’ll go , and wait beside a legendary fountain ,
G C G C
till i see your form reflected in it’s clear and jeweled waters;
D Dsus2 D
and if you think i’m ready
C
you may lead me to the chasm , where the rivers of our vision ,
D G C G C
flow into one another

G C 2

x G C G C
i will want to die beneath , the white cascading waters ,
G C G C
she may beg , she may plead , she may argue with her logic;
D Dsus2 D
and then she’ll know the things i learned
C
that really have no value , in the end she will surely know ,
D G
i wasn’t born to follow

G C 2
