Well here I go

Spinning silk across the skyline

Places to go

But I’m generous with my time

And when the clouds are blotting out the sky
Abm E A F#
I swing upon on the silver lining
[Chorus]
B C#m
And when I swing by

I’ll sling away your troubles
B C#m E F#
Yeah when I swing by you’ll shine
B C#m
And I know that life

Can often be a struggle
Abm F# A
But you’ll soon be feelin’ fine
When I swing by

Wisdom is earned
E F#
In the dark I keep believing

I try to learn

Ambition weaves a web that failure can’t get through

And when the clouds are blotting out the sky
Abm E A F#
I swing upon on the silver lining

I’ll sling away your troubles
