HEADING FOR THE LIGHT- The Traveling Wilburys 

B  C#  E  F# 
B                                           C# 
I've wandered around with nothing more than time on my hands 
      E                         F# 
I was lost in the night with no sight of you 
       E                        F# 
And at times it was so blue and lonely 
                B     E F# 
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 

CHORUS #1: 
riff  Abm      F#             E                        B 
Ooh, I didn't see that big black cloud hanging over me 
riff Abm            F#                    E 
And when the rain came down I was nearly drowned 
C#                             
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 ...SOLO 

CHORUS #2: 
Ooh, my hands were tied by jokers and fools on either side 
But still I kept on till the worst had gone 
Now I see the hole I was in 

REPEAT THIRD VERSE 

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 
            E                     F#                       B 
Now there's nothing in the way to stop me, heading for the light 
C#  E  F#  B
