[Intro]
G Em x2

[Verse 1]
G Em
I could shed my skin and in the blink of an eye, I could fly, fly, fly
G Em
Tie my dreams up in a sack and lay my head down on the track and die, die,

die
C G
My life's been so sweet I just can't stand it
Bm D Dsus4
I must admit, I've made out like a bandit

[Verse 2]
G Em
Last night's conversation with a real good friend of mine, drinkin' wine,

wine, wine
G Em
Said, "Fifty years of livin' and your worst mistake's forgiven, just take

time, time, time"
C G
One man's lust for life brings world reknown
Bm D G
And the next guy can't get two feet off the ground, he's earthbound

[Chorus 1]
Em
(Earthbound) Hear the wind throught the tops of the trees
G
(Earthbound) Summer sun nearly ninety degrees
Em D Dsus4 D
(Earthbound) Big ol' moon sinkin' down, think I might stick around
Dsus4
G
I'm earthbound

[Verse 3]
G Em
I knew love once way back when, she had almond eyes and olive skin and long

black hair
G Em
She was Irish Spanish mixbreed, I was southeast Texas hayseed, we were almost

there
C G
Her daddy did not like my kind around
Bm D G
And true love took the next train out of town, earthbound

[Chorus 2]
