Key: A
This is capo 3 on the guitar.
A E A E
A D A
I see the red winged eagle flying
A D E
and disappear in the hot desert sun
A D A
sometimes I wish that was my soul up there
F#m D E
borne on the wings of some perfect love
now this river is not like the city
water rolls, running deep, running still
and in my blood there's a yearning for changing
and in my heart a hope a song can fill
F#m E
sometimes the words don't come so easy
A D D/C# D/B D/A
sometimes the words, yeah, trip my tongue
[chorus:]
E A
cast the net wide, love
E F#m
bring me in
D A
cast the net wide, love
D A/C# E
let me begin again
D A
cast the net wide, love
E F#m
and pull me in
D A/C# E A E D
o-oh, cast the net wide
It's a sin, so much time spent for money
so many dreams left behind, left to starve
and all you want is a reason for breathing
in between you, what you must do, and what you are
sometimes the words, they hold no answer
sometimes the answer is not what you want
[chorus]
[guitar solo over instrumental chorus, without the D at the end]
sometimes the words (sometimes the words),
they come unravelled (they come unravelled)
sometimes the only (sometimes the only) way is down
E A E F#m
cast the net wide
D A DM7
cast the net wide, love
E A E F#m
cast the net wide
D A/C# E E/D E
oh-oh oh-ohhhhhh...
[chorus]
E D
cast the net wide
