I've  wandered around with nothing more than time  on my hands
 I was lost  in the night with no sight  of you
 And at times  it was so blue and lonely
 Heading for the light
 Been close to the edge, hanging by my fingernails
 I've rolled and I've tumbled through the roses and the thorns
 And I couldn't see the sign that warned me, I'm
 Heading for the light
Ooh  - I didn't see  that big  black cloud hanging over  me
And  when the rain  came down I was nearly  drowned
 I didn't  know the mess I was in
 My shoes are wearing out from walking down this same highway
 I don't see nothing new but I feel a lot of change
 And I get the strangest feeling, as I'm
 Heading for the light
Ooh -  my hands  were tired
 Jokers and fools on either side
 But still I kept on till the worst had gone
 Now I see the hole I was in
 My shoes are wearing out from walking down this same highway
 I don't see nothing new but I feel a lot of change
 And I get the strangest feeling, as I'm
 Heading for the light
 I see the sun ahead, I ain't never looking back
 All the dreams are coming true as I think of you
 Now there's nothing in the way to stop me
 Heading for the light
 Now there's nothing  in the way to stop  me
 Heading for the light
 (pause)
 Heading for the light
 Heading for the light

[A]I've wandered around with nothing more than t[B]ime on my hands
I was l[Dm]ost in the night with no s[E]ight of you
And at [Dm]times it was so blue and l[E]onely
Heading for the l[A]ight  [Dm]     [E]       [A]

Been close to the edge, hanging by my fingernails
I've rolled and I've tumbled through the roses and the thorns
And I couldn't see the sign that warned me, I'm
Heading for the lig[A]ht
[F#m]Ooh - I didn't s[E]ee that b[D]ig black cloud hanging o[A]ver me
[F#m]And when the ra[E]in came down I was nea[D]rly drowned
I di[B7]dn't know the mess I was in

My shoes are wearing out from walking down this same highway
I don't see nothing new but I feel a lot of change
And I get the strangest feeling, as I'm
Heading for the light

[A]Oo[B]h [Dm]- m[E]y [Dm]han[E]ds[A] were tired
Jokers and fools on either side
But still I kept on till the worst had gone
Now I see the hole I was in

My shoes are wearing out from walking down this same highway
I don't see nothing new but I feel a lot of change
And I get the strangest feeling, as I'm
Heading for the lig[A]ht [Dm]    [E]

I see the sun ahead, I ain't never looking back
All the dreams are coming true as I think of you
Now there's nothing in the way to stop me
Heading for the li[A]ght   [Dm]      [E]
Now there's no[Dm]thing in the way to s[E]top me
Heading for the li[A]ght   [B]        [Dm]           [A]

(pause)

[A]  [B]  [Dm]   [E]  [Dm]   [E]  Heading for the li[A]ght  [Dm]     [E]
