Outlaws And Dreamers

     A           E             D 
The days and the hours swiftly 
        A
turn into seasons
    A                           
The weeks and the months quickly 
           D
turn into years
    A            E             D 
The present is coloured by 
       A
memories of childhood
   A                        E     
Of heartache and happiness, 
       A
laughter and tears

[VERSE 2]
     A              E         
I've flown and I've driven long 
  D            A
miles by the million
         A                         
Through desert and forest and high 
         D
mountain range
        A           E          D 
Through pastures of plenty and 
        A
dark city byways
  A                         E     
A life on the move in boat, car 
  A
and train

[VERSE 3]
   A        E         D          
Thirty-five years of singing and 
A
playing
   A                            
Thirty-five years of life on the 
  D
road
A           E           D       
Laughing at tyrants and spitting
    A
 at despots
  A                             E 
I've danced in the footsteps of 
       A
men like Tom Joad

[VERSE 4]
   A                 E            
They've called me an outlaw 
  D           A
they've called me a dreamer
     A                             
They said I would change as I aged 
         D
and grew old
         A            E           
That the memory would fade of the 
D            A
things I had lived through
   A                   E          
That the flash fire of youth would
        A
 slowly turn cold

[VERSE 5]
       D                           
But  I raise up my glass and drink 
 G          D
deep of its flame
   A                           
To those who have gone who were 
              D
links in the chain
D                              G 
And I give my soul's promise I 
              D
give my heart's pledge
A                           E    
To outlaws and dreamers and life 
       A
at the edge

[VERSE 6]
   A             E           D   
So here's to the vision that 
     A
binds us together
     A                             
That tears down the walls that 
           D
would keep us apart
    A              E         
And here's to the future where 
  D              A
dreams will be honoured
        A                          
And the fierce flame of freedom 
  E           A
that burns in our hearts

[VERSE 7]
     A            E         
The fire is still burning the 
  D              A
future's still calling
   A                               
To follow the dream till the end of
    D
 my days
  A           E          D       
Wishing's for fools but dreams 
      A
are for outlaws
   A                      E       
Laughter's for lovers and tears 
         A
for the brave

[VERSE 8]
 D                            G   
I raise up my glass and drink deep
        D
 of its flame
   A                           
To those who have gone who were 
              D
links in the chain
D                              G 
And I give my soul's promise I 
              D
give my heart's pledge
A                           E    
To outlaws and dreamers and life 
       A
at the edge
   A             E           D   
To outlaws and dreamers and life 
     A
at the edge
