Verse 1:
G Em
People check to tell me
C Am G Gsus4 G
What they think is right
G Em
I don’t listen to them
C Am G Gsus4 G
Don’t know day from night
Am C
I’ll go through life searchin’
Em G
Tryin’ to find the one
C Em
I’d go slip, slip, you’d go slip, slip
D Dsus4 D D Dsus4 D
Away
Chorus:
Am D C G Gsus4 G
And I don’t need you to help me find my way
Am D C G Gsus4 G
I can make it if I just don’t see your face
Am D C G Gsus4 G [2X; w/harmonica 2nd time]

Verse 2:
Once I had a problem
Didn’t know what to do
Now I’ve got no problems
All I had was you
Guess I’ll keep on searchin’
And try to find the one
‘Cause I’d go slip, slip, you’d go slip, slip
Away
[repeat chorus]
Coda:
Am D C G Gsus4 G
Ah ah ah ah ah ah
Am D C E [end cold]
Ah ah ah ah ah ah
