G                         F
I wish I was a fisherman, tumbling out to sea
Am                     C 
Far away from dry land, and it's bitter memories
G                         F
Casting out my sweet land, with abandonment and love
Am                       C
No ceiling bearing on me, save the starry sky above

                  G
With light in my head
               F
And you in my arms
  Am        C
Whoo


I wish i was the breakman, on a hurtling fevered train
crashing a headlong on heartland line a cannon on the rain
With the beating of sweepers and the burning of coal
Counting the towns flashing by and the night that's full of soul

With light in my head
and you in my arms

Tomorrow i will be loosened, from the bonds that hold me fast
with the chains all around me will fall away at last
and on that fine and fateful day will take thee in my hand
will ride on the train i will be the fisherman

with light in my head
you in my arms
