## NOTE 1: ~ = Walk-Down from on the A-string ## ## NOTE 2: - is a quick chord change from to ## th Fret Intro: ~ It’s an unfinished life that I find lies before me An open-ended dream and I don’t want to wake ~ I’ve crossed so many rivers in search of crystal fountains ~ I’ve found the truest paths always lead through mountains - I’ve seen water on the sky and fire burning on the lake Chorus: You said to me ’I cannot make you happy ~ Like a wounded bird you must find the strength to fly ~ Time can paint the treetops with colours of the rainbow But you cannot find the end no matter how you try’ ~ It’s a journey with my soul that I am taking One that only goes from the cradle to the grave ~ Going ’round in circles like painted dancing horses ~ Up and down we ride on the wooden courses - And light from a lover’s eyes is all that I can save Chorus: You said to me ’I cannot make you happy ~ Like a wounded bird you must find the strength to fly ~ Time can paint the treetops with colours of the rainbow But you cannot find the end no matter how you try’ Instrumental: - ~ ~ ~ ~ So I’ll take the day and run out across the open fields Where the grass grows high and the shadows fall ~ Where my eyes can see all the colours in the air ~ So quiet that the wind whistles in my hair - And takes the rising dust and carries it away Chorus: You said to me ’I cannot make you happy ~ Like a wounded bird you must find the strength to fly ~ Time can paint the treetops with colours of the rainbow But you cannot find the end no matter how you try’
