LEADING ME BACK TO YOU
by: Joe Sample & Michael Franks (1988)
from the Joe Sample album "Spellbound"
Fm7 / Fm/Bb / | Ebma7(?) / Cm7 (?) / | (2X)
I guess I flew too high
Fm9 Fm9/Bb Cm7 Bbm7 A7 (or Eb7)
Icarus falling from the sky
a7 -ma7 (+5)
But in the dense rain forest heat
Somehow I landed on my feet
With the will to sur - vive.
And in the heart of darkness
Abm7 Abm9 (Db7-9 or Db9)
Without a chance of rescue
I never quit, I just refused
Cma7 / / / | / / Dm7 Em7
I thought of you
Somehow I know I'd find you
Following my heart's com - pass
And your love
Am7-5 D7(?-9)Gma7
Your love was leading me back to you.
Now the ordeal is over
? Ebma7 ?
Now I can feel your heartbeat
And your love
Your love is leading me back to you.
Fm7 / Fm/Bb / | Ebma7(?) / Cm7(?) / | (2X)
Daylight be - gan to show
A jungle painted by Rou - sseau
a7 -ma7
I walked a - round in circles lost
Above the spider-monkeys laughed
At my failure be - low.
And in the heart of darkness
Without a chance of rescue
?
I never quit, I just refused
Cma7 / / / | / / Dm7 Em7
I thought of you
Somehow I know I'd find you
Following my heart's compass
And your love
Your love was leading me back to you.
Now the ordeal is over
Now I can feel your heartbeat
And your love
Your love is leading me back to you.
Fm7 / Fm/Bb / | Ebma7 / Cm7 / | (repeat and fade)
