Em7 C G D


Intro: Em7 C G D x2

Em7               C
Time is space and Iʼm out of place
G                  D
Donʼt recognize a single face
Em7                  C
By now I should have won the race
    G                 D
But I havenʼt found a home
 
Em7                      C
Seems to me if you donʼt catch that vine
G                          D
And swing to the next tree branch in time
Em7                      C
The years add up and you fall behind
           G             D
And youʼre left to walk alone

Pre-Chorus:
           Em7           C
    So Iʼm drifting, Iʼm drifting
            G    D
    Iʼm drifting
              Em7              C
    Yeah, Iʼm drifting and Iʼm drifting
                G    D
    And Iʼm drifting

Chorus:
           Em7            C
    Meet a stranger, tag along
          G                      D
    Maybe smoke a cigarette all wrong
           Em7           C
    Tell a story, sing a song
           G                     D
    Lay my head where it donʼt belong
     
    Em7          C
    Somehow it occurs to me
         G               D
    That out here on the deep blue sea
              Em7          C
    There are other people drifting too
          G             D               Em7 C
    Maybe someday baby, Iʼll drift into you
     
          G             D               Em7 C G D
    Maybe someday baby, Iʼll drift into you

Em7                  C
Called my shrink the other day
G                 D
Forgot what I was gonna say
     Em7             C
So I lied and said I lost my way
       G                  D
ʼCus I couldnʼt let him down
 
Em7            C
Put my leather jacket on
G                   D
To play the part of bad boy John
Em7                C
The broken-hearted vagabond
    G               D
And wandered into town

Pre-Chorus:
             Em7                 C
    ʼCus Iʼm drifting, yeah, Iʼm drifting,
                  G    D
    Yeah, Iʼm drifting
              Em7                 C
    Yeah, Iʼm drifting, yeah, Iʼm drifting,
            G    D
    Iʼm drifting

Chorus:
           Em7            C
    Meet a stranger, tag along
          G                      D
    Maybe smoke a cigarette all wrong
           Em7           C
    Tell a story, sing a song
           G                     D
    Lay my head where it donʼt belong
     
    Em7          C
    Somehow it occurs to me
         G               D
    That out here on the deep blue sea
              Em7          C
    There are other people drifting too
          G             D               Em7 C
    Maybe someday baby, Iʼll drift into you
     
          G             D               Em7
    Maybe someday baby, Iʼll drift into you

Bridge:
    Em7                     C
    For the moment till the moment is gone
    G                              D
    Lonesome is the road Iʼve been travellinʼ on
      Em7                         C
    I go where I want and I donʼt miss anyone
               G    D
    ʼCause Iʼm drifting
     
    Em7                         C
    Tryna write a story but Iʼm stuck on a page
    G                               D
    God, itʼs been so long, canʼt remember my age
        Em7                         C
    Iʼm lost till the minute that I step on the stage
             G    D
    ʼCus Iʼm drifting
     
            Em7  C G D
    And Iʼm drifting

Chorus:
           Em7            C
    Meet a stranger, tag along
          G                      D
    Maybe smoke a cigarette all wrong
           Em7           C
    Tell a story, sing a song
           G                     D
    Lay my head where it donʼt belong
     
    Em7          C
    Somehow it occurs to me
         G               D
    That out here on the deep blue sea
              Em7          C
    There are other people drifting too
          G             D               Em7 C
    Maybe someday baby, Iʼll drift into you
     
          G             D               Em7 C
    Maybe someday baby, Iʼll drift into you
          G             D               Em7
    Maybe someday baby, Iʼll drift into you
