Dm C
Dm C G

Dm G
i enjoy this life as a jester
Dm G
seems to keep me movin’ around
Am D Am D
like the wind that blows , tide that flows
C D G
have my ups and downs

Dm G
all a part of some strange plan i’m sure
Dm G
start a new chapter each day
Am D Am D
honey , love gets lost , time gets tossed
C D G
’cause we’ve both got our own different ways

( chorus )
F C G
i feel like i’m stranded on a sandbar
F C G
stuck in my tracks like a street car
F C G
playin’ it for all that it’s worth
F C G
i’m just payin’ for my sins on earth

( bridge )

Dm G
Dm G
Am D Am D
C D G

Dm C G
now i used to go crazy for days at a time
Dm C G
now i’m takin’ my time with my days
Dm C G
haven’t found the answers like some that i know
Dm C G
i’m just stuck in a fairly nice maze

Dm G
climb to the top of the island tonight
Dm G
sit beneath the cashew tree
Am D Am D
i want to count the stars , lights on the cars
C D G
that are shinin’ up and down on me

( chorus x 2 )
F C G
i feel like i’m stranded on a sandbar
F C G
baby i’m stuck in my tracks like a street car
F C G
playin’ it for all that it’s worth
F C G
i’m just payin’ for my sins on earth

Dm G
i enjoy this life as a jester
Dm G
seems to keep me movin’ around
