Album: Wild Tales (1974)
Written by: Graham Nash
I don't Know the album version of this, i worked it out from an acoustic
version from the old grey whistle test, it kinda just drops straight in, so
there might be more to the intro. also, im not too sure the chords behind the
harmonica solo are correct, but the sound alright.
Hanging around is holding me down
I'm starting to frown at everyone I see,
I'm taking the calls and playing the halls,
but staring at walls is all I ever see.
So is the money I make
worth the price that I pay?
Can I make it to the end of the line?
Don't the wind blow cold
when you're hanging your soul
on the line?
And you're driving to work
you're wearing your shirt
you're dialing the dirt
-
with everyone you see.
You're taking a loss,
you envy the boss,
you're counting the cost
of everything you see.
So is the money you make
worth the price that you pay?
Can you make it to the end of the line?
Don't the wind blow cold
when you're hanging your soul
on the line?
harmonica solo
Oooh, and you know that it's true
that I've watched you go far
playing guitar
being a star
-
for everyone to see.
And I'm filming my dreams
from limousines
and thinking of scenes
for everyone to see.
So is the money you make
worth the price that you pay?
Can you make it to the end of the line?
Don't the wind blow cold
when you're hanging your soul
on the line?
on the line?
