Lyrics and guitar chords

  • Guitar chords Sherman
For the live acoustic version recorded in Wyoming that can be found on YouTube, put the capo on 5,
and transpose the chords seven half steps down (so that the D changes into Am B).

The F9 chord in the bridge must be played as: 022104

[Intro]
B Bsus2 B Bsus2 B Bsus2 B Fm7 F B B


[Verse 1]
BVineland, New Jersey, farm land stretching
Far as the eye can Bsee B  [B/Cm]    
Fm7Not much down there, but Fsun-Fsus4scorched pastures in
BNineteen-fifty-Bthree
BThe war is over, they came searching
For a place to Bbe [B/Cm]    
Fm7They left the Rhineland, they lFosFsus4t their homeland, and
BAll their famiBly


[Chorus]
FLike feathers on the Bocean breeze
They went Gmspinning and Ftumbling 'cross the Bsea
FmNever known where they'd Bcome down F 
Or who they'd Bbe
FLike heather on the hBillside
They were Gmbruised and they were Fbattered by the Bbreeze
Fm7Searching for a BplaFce
To be Bfree

[Instrumental]
B Bsus2 B Bsus2 B B Fm7 F B B


[Verse 2]
BSun burn summers and frostbite winter
Kids were plainly Bdressed B  [B/Cm]    
Fm7Left the farmhouse when Fhe Fsus4was old enough, and
BHeaded out weBst
BFrom California to Southern Africa
And all the way to BFrance B  [B/Cm]    
Fm7And on to England to mFeet my mother in
BNineteen-eighty-Bone B  [B/Cm]    


[Chorus]
FA feather on the oBcean breeze
He went Gmspinning and Ftumbling 'cross the Bsea
FmNever known where he'd cBome downF 
Or who he'd Bbe
FLike heather on the Bhillside
He was Gmbruised and he was Fbattered by the Bbreeze
Fm7Searching for a BplaFce
To be Bfree


[Bridge]
Oh, and Blike a seed
That is Bmflying in the wind
In search of Bwater, sFoil, and Gmsun
And the Fm7birds and the bF9ees
To have it all FalongFsus4        F 


[Verse 3]
BNow here I am, thirty-three years down
Two-thousand-sevenBteen
Fm7I've seen the Rhineland, I've Fbeen Fsus4to Vineland, I'mB 
A feather on the Bbreeze
