A7 D A month of nights, a year of days, A7 G Octobers drifting into Mays; A7 D I set my sail as the tide comes in G A7 D A7 And I just cast my fate to the wind. A7 D I shift my course along the breeze; A7 G Won't sail upwind on memories. A7 D The empty sky is my best friend, G A7 D A7 And I just cast my fate to the wind. Bridge: A D G Time has such a way of changing A7 D G A man throughout the years; A D G A D G And now I'm rearranging my life through all my tears A9 DA7 D Alone, a - lone. A7 D There never was, there couldn't be A7 G A place in time for men like me A7 D Who'd drink the dark and laugh the day G A7 D A7 And let their wildest dreams blow away. Repeat Bridge: A7 D So now I'm old, I'm wise and smart; A7 G I'm just a man with half a heart. A7 D I wonder how it might have been G A D D7 Had I not cast my fate to the wind.
