then the weather changed

and the white got stained

riff *
and it breaks my heart
C G F C
to think about how close we came
C G F C
i wanna walk like a giant on the land
C G F C
i wanna walk like a giant on the land

solo over Am F ( many , many times! )

Am F Am F
the tracks ahead were long and straight
Am F Am F
we were riding on the desert wind
Am F
we were pulling in the spiritual
Am F C
riding on the desert wind
C
we can see it in the distance
C
getting closer every minute
C
we saw the lights of spiritual shining
C
getting closer every minute

Dm7
then we skipped the rails
Em
and we started to fail
riff *
and we folded up
riff *
and it’s not enough
C G F C
to think about how close we came
C G F C
i wanna walk like a giant on the land
C G F C
i wanna walk like a giant on the land

solo over Am F ( many , many times! )

Am F Am F
whenever i see the big fire coming
Am F Am F
coming to burn down all my ideas
Am F
i try to hold to my thinking
Am F C
remember how it feels
C
when i’m looking right in your eyes
C
seeing your blue eyes shining
C
hearing your happy laughing
C
seeing your blue eyes shining

Dm7
so the moment came
Em
and the big sky rained
riff *
and it put out the fire
riff *
except in my desire
C G F C
to think about how close we came
C G F C
i wanna walk like a giant on the land
C G F C
i wanna walk like a giant on the land

solo over Am F ( many , many times! )
