Verse: F I don't do well if I'm kept behind an office C Em desk inside it makes me lose my mind F Which wanders endlessly where all the birds fly freely with their Em G silhouettes and perfect symmetry Chorus: C I've got a pocketful of poetry Am I've got a head full of songs, a heart with wings F G C You couldn't tie me down to anything and that's enough for me Verse: F I draw doodles of eccentric faces in the C Em margin spaces of important papers F Then I hand them in with a comedic grin Em G You ask if I need help, oh where do I begin? Chorus: C I've got a pocketful of poetry Am I've got a head full of songs, a heart with wings F G C You couldn't tie me down to anything and that's enough for me Bridge: Am People are good, loving, they tell me F Do as you should, all will be well they say Em Life is a test, please give the best answer F a b of c, pick one instantly G What if there's so much more to me? Chorus (x3): C I've got a pocketful of poetry Am I've got a head full of songs, a heart with wings F G C You couldn't tie me down to anything and that's enough for me This arrangement is its contributor’s own interpretation, shared for private study, education and non-commercial use.

I love this song 😀 Gonna try to learn it as my third song on the uke!
I know this has noting to do with this song, though I absolutely love it!!!! But does anyone know the chords to a song entitled “Break the Distance” by Ashton Edminster? Both these songs mean SOOO much to me and it would be amazing to have the chords to both!
