HEADING FOR THE LIGHT- The Traveling Wilburys
G A C D
G A
I've wandered around with nothing more than time on my hands
C D
I was lost in the night with no sight of you
C D
And at times it was so blue and lonely
G C D
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 Em D C G
Ooh, I didn't see that big black cloud hanging over me
riff Em D C
And when the rain came down I was nearly drowned
A G
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
C D G
Now there's nothing in the way to stop me, heading for the light
A C G

This musical interpretation has been removed due to a legal threat from Moses & Singer LLP,
representing the National Music Publishers' Association (NMPA) and
The Music Publisher's Association of the United States (MPA).
Unfortunately, these threats are fueled by greed and being masked by a "copyright infringement." They claim tab sites are
"hurting the songwriters," but it's a known fact that the publishing companies garner most of the
revenue. Instead, they would prefer you to purchase the
official TRAVELING WILBURYS tablature
which is an option we've always given our users. And due to the highly error-prone nature of tabs on the internet, many choose to go this route.
These companies also do not realize that tablature sites help to promote their artists.
For more information on this onslaught, you can read the
NY Times Article.
We hope one of the larger tablature sites will have the money to fight this. Until then, we urge you all to keep tabbing songs and sharing them in any way you can.
