---------------
INTRO (same as chorus):
[D] [A] [G]
[D] [A] [D] [A] [D]
No wage can [D] buy what the world never wanted
Hearts press [G] on anyway undaunted
Where there's [D] smoke there's fire, faith has charm
But faith can de[A]stroy
By and [D] by all the threads are sewn
Dark [G] clouds make their presence known
[D] Stand by the fire and just [A] hope
That it doesn't [D] burn out
CHORUS
When the [D] world is not what it [A] seems
On the [G] outside looking in on a dream
Don't let the barricades of [D] life keep the wild spirit [A] still
When the [D] world around caves [A] in
Lights will [G] shine, let your life begin
Don't let the barricades of [D] life keep the [Asus2] wild spirit [D] still
GUITAR/FIDDLE BREAK (same as intro):
[D] [A] [G]
[D] [A] [D] [A] [D]
No matter [D] what you set out to find
There's compe[G]tition down the line
The [D] crime of one might be salt of the earth to [A] nine
Makes no [D] difference what others say and do
The path goes [G] on showing the way for you
The [D] sign says redemption ahead
[A] Straight on [D] through
CHORUS
When the [D] world is not what it [A] seems
On the [G] outside looking in on a dream
Don't let the barricades of [D] life keep the wild spirit [A] still
When the [D] world around caves [A] in
Lights will [G] shine, let your life begin
Don't let the barricades of [D] life keep the [Asus2] wild spirit [D] still
Don't let the [G] barricades of [D] life keep the [Asus2] wild spirit [D] still
GUITAR/FIDDLE BREAK (same as intro):
[D] [A] [G]
[D] [A] [D] [A] [D]
