The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

You lose your way

You've got to land

You've gotta make another plan

But sometimes I am too tired

You've gotta smile

You've gotta play

You've gotta work another day

But sometimes I am too tired

You've gotta raise your hand

And say I don't understand

But there are days when I'm too tired

There are days when I'm just too tired

And the wind that I'm in

Screams on me

Screams on me

Howls around me

Howls around me

And I feel like I am a naked man

I've got nothing and no one

In a stranger's land

And the wind will do me in

Every day you've gotta run

You've got a job

You get it done

But sometimes I am too tired

You wanna roll in the grass

Kick your shoes off

Have a laugh

But sometimes I am too tired

I wanna raise my hand

And say I don't understand

But there are days when I'm too tired

There are days when I'm just too tired

And the wind kicks in again and says

Lean on me

Lean on me

Rise above me

Rise above me

And it says sailor

Don't leave the channel now

Deep blue rollers are breaking across your bow

And the wind will guide you in

So I went up the mountain

But all I saw was another mountain

So I came down the mountain

And I said leave me here Lord

So I went up the mountain

But all I saw was another mountain

So I came down the mountain

And I said leave me here Lord

Leave me in the valley

Let me rest my weary head

Give peace to your survivor

Put all my fears to bed

You lose your way

You've got to land

You've gotta make another plan

But sometimes I am inspired

You're gonna sing another song

You're gonna right another wrong

And sometimes I am inspired

You're gonna raise your hand and say I don't understand

And there are days when you get an answer

There are days when you find your answer
