And, if I make it to the water-side, I’ll be sure to write you a note, or some-thing Verse 5 Oh, I’m on my way, I know I am, somewhere not so far from here, All I know is all I feel right now, (Riff) I feel a power growing in my hair Oh, life is like a maze of doors, And they all open from the side you’re on, Just keep on pushing hard, Boy, try as you may, you’re gonna wind up where you started from, You’re gonna wind up where you started from | / / / / | / / / / | / / / / | / / / / | | / / / / | / / / / | / / / / | / |
