Verse:
C                Em7 
I spent my time, watching
     G               Gmaj7 
The spaces that have grown between us.
C                     Em7
And I cut my mind on second best,
       G           Gmaj7   
Oh the scars that come with the greenness.
C                         Em7
And I gave my eyes to the boredom,
           G              Gmaj7
Still the seabed wouldn't let me in.
C                                Em7
And I try my best to embrace the darkness
G          C
In which I swim.

Verse:
C                           Em7
Now walking back, down this mountain,
    G             Gmaj7     
The strength of a turnin' tide.
C                           Em7
Oh the wind so soft, and my skin,
         G      Gmaj7
Yeah the sun so hot upon my side.
C                      Em7
Oh lookin' out at this happiness
   G           Gmaj7
I searched for between the sheets,
C                   Em7
Oh feelin' blind, I realize,
G     Gmaj7                 C     
All I was searchin' for... was me.
   Em7    G         Gmaj7         C      
Oh oh-oh, all I was searchin' for was me.
D
Oh yeah

Chorus:
Em7                D               C
keep your head up, keep your heart strong no, no, no, no,
Em7                 D              C 
keep your mind set, keep your hair long Oh my, my darlin'.
Em7                D               C
keep your head up, keep your heart strong Na, oh, no, no.
Em7                D               C
keep your mind set in your ways.... Keep your heart strong.

Verse -same as first-:
Now I saw a friend of mine, the other day,
And he told me that my eyes were gleamin'.
Oh I said I'd been away, and he knew...
Oh he knew the depths I was meanin'.
And it felt so good to see his face,
All the comfort invested in my soul,
Oh to feel the warmth, of his smile,
When he said, 'I'm happy to have you home.'
Oh oh-oh, I'm happy to have you home.

Chorus:
Em7                D               C
keep your head up, keep your heart strong no, no, no, no,
Em7                 D              C 
keep your mind set, keep your hair long Oh my, my darlin'.
Em7                D               C
keep your head up, keep your heart strong Na, oh, no, no.
Em7                D               C
keep your mind set in your ways.... Keep your heart strong.

Bridge:
Em7                D               C
'Cause I'll always remember you the same.
Em7                D               C
Oh eyes like wildflowers, oh with your demons of change.


D                                C 
Ohhh May you find happiness here.

keep your head up, keep your heart strong Na, oh, no, no.
