[Verse 1]
G                                             A
  I've wandered around with nothing more than time on my hands
      Cm                        D
I was lost in the night with no sight of you
       Cm                       D
And at times it was so blue and lonely
                G       Cm  D
Heading for the light
 
[Verse 2]
G                                       A
  Been close to the edge, hanging by my fingernails
     Cm                                  D
I've rolled and I've tumbled through the roses and the thorns
      Cm                         D
And I couldn't see the sign that warned me, I'm
                G
Heading for the light
 
[Bridge]
Em      D               C                       G
 Ooh, I didn't see that big black cloud hanging over me
Em            D                    C
 And when the rain came down I was nearly drowned
  A                          A7
I didn't know the mess I was in
 
[Verse 3]
G                                                A
 My shoes are wearing out from walking down this same highway
  Cm                          D
I don't see nothing new but I feel a lot of change
      Cm                         D
And I get the strangest feeling, as I'm
                G       Cm  D
Heading for the light

[Bridge]
Em       D
 Ooh, my hands were tired
  C                 G
Jokers and fools on either side
Em                            D
 But still I kept on till the worst had gone
A                         A7
Now I see the hole I was in
 
[Verse 4]
G                                                 A
  My shoes are wearing out from walking down this same highway
  Cm                          D
I don't see nothing new but I feel a lot of change
      Cm                         D
And I get the strangest feeling, as I'm
                G       Cm  D
Heading for the light
 
[Verse 5]
G                                   A
 I see the sun ahead, I ain't never looking back
        Cm                           D
All the dreams are coming true and I think of you
            Cm                    D
Now there's nothing in the way to stop me

really like this version, not sure how accurate it is, but bounces along nicely and sounds pretty good
