CAPO: 2nd Fret



[INTRO:] G  C/G  G  C/G  G

[VERSE 1:]
                                     C
I don't believe in miracles, if it's all the same by you 
     D                 C                G
Your wishes would come true if I had my say 
Em                    G
Whether it's right or wrong
    C              D
The words of every song
  C            G
Remind us of a love we knew 
      Am7                Bb        Am7          D   G
Where love should not go wrong, in yesterdays


[CHORUS:]
           Am       G
Hang on ye drifters now
        C          D      Em     D    G
You got so much to go and gamble on 
                  Am       G
Watch out for the shifting sand 
    C            D  G    C/G  G  C/G  G      
Wherever you may ramble


[VERSE 2:]
                                 C
Even now, as I look back and see all that's come to pass 
  D              C                G      Em
I can't remember how it was I got here 
                 G
Look around this place
          C              D
There's a smile on every face 
      C                G
We're somewhere in the afterglow 
    Am7             Bb         Am7             D      G
Out there among the stars, out there among the bars


[CHORUS:]
           Am       G
Hang on ye drifters now
        C         D      Em        D     G
You got places to go and people to meet 
                  Am       G
Watch out for the shifting tide 
    C            D  G    C/G  G  C/G  G      
Wherever you may travel


[VERSE 3:]
                                      C
I know I should not complain, because life's been good to me 
   D                  C                 G 
It feels real good to be stranded on my own 
Em                G
Be that as it may be
C              D
We are what we are 
     C               G
I'll find you at the afterglow
    Am7             Bb       Am7         D   G
Out there among the stars of yesteryear


[CHORUS:]
           Am       G
Hang on ye drifters now
        C          D      Em     D    G
You got so much to go and gamble on 
                  Am       G
Watch out for the shifting sand 
    C            D  G    C/G  G  C/G  G      
Wherever you may ramble
  

[CHORUS:]
        Am       G
All you drifters now 
        C         D      Em        D     G
You got places to go and people to meet 
                  Am       G
Watch out for the shifting tide 
    C            D  G    C/G  G  
Wherever you may ramble
