(Riff A 4x)

E                D
There's a lot to learn

A           G
For wastin' time

E                    D
There's a heart that burns

A               G
There's an open mind

Bm           G
Look out for my love  (4x)


(with Riff B)

You own it
You own it now
You own it

There's a weight on you
But you can't feel it
Livin' like I do
It's hard for you to see it

Was I hurt too bad?
Can I show you daylight?
How can I be sad
When I know that you might

Look out for my love (4x)

C
Look out for my love

Em
It's in your neighborhood

Am
I know things are gonna change

      G
But I can't say bad or good

(Riff B 3x)

Silver wings of mornin'
Shining in the gray day
While the ice is formin'
On a lonely runway

Hydraulic wipers pumpin'
Till the window glistens
Somethin' saying somethin'
No one seems to listen

Men with walkie-talkies
Men with flashlights wavin'
Up upon the tower
The clock reads daylight savings

It's home again to you babe
You know it makes me wonder
Sittin' in the quiet slipstream
Rolling in the thunder

Look out for my love (4x)

(solo over chorus (Bm G))

Look out for my love (4x)

(solo over chorus (Bm G))

David M's corrections

In this Riff play the bass strings on the standard E chord, the 5/7
should be 7/9...the changes have been marked with ****
