Verse
D# F A#
I cry tears of emotion

To spread across the U.S.A#

Ain't no sunshine cowboy

In your pockets
C F
I'll make my own way while I play

Baby you forgot you're living

Someone covered up your eyes

In my way at least I'm giving
F A#
What I love, am I wise?
[Chorus]

There's gonna be some confusion
D# F A#
And there's gonna be a day
D# F
You'll raise your eyes
A#
And you'll look to the skies

And you'll pray, while I play
[Verse 3]
A#
I am my father's son
D#
Or that is what I heard

Maybe I got it wrong

I didn't mean a word

You got my face and I'll play your ace
F A#
Pretend I haven't heard
[Chorus]
D# F A#
There's gonna be some confusion

And there's gonna be a day

And look to the skies

I am a minstrel

A# symphony in wealth

I will take my leave

I gotta move on time

I played inside your soul
F A#
I made you sing along

I will return to find out

If the melody was wrong

There's gonna be some confusion
D# F A#
And there's gonna be a day
D# F
You'll raise your eyes
A#
And look to the skies

And you'll pray, while I play, while I play
