[Intro]
D Dsus2 D Dsus2 D Dsus2 G Em7 A D G
[Verse 1]
DVineland, New Jersey, farm land stretching
G G D/F#Far as the eye can see
Em7 A Asus4Not much down there, but sun-scorched pastures in
D GNineteen-fifty-three
DThe war is over, they came searching
G D/F#For a place to be
Em7 A Asus4They left the Rhineland, they lost their homeland, and
D GAll their family
[Chorus]
A GLike feathers on the ocean breeze
Bm A DThey went spinning and tumbling 'cross the sea
Em G ANever known where they'd come down
DOr who they'd be
A GLike heather on the hillside
Bm A DThey were bruised and they were battered by the breeze
Em7 G ASearching for a place
DTo be free
[Instrumental]
D Dsus2 D Dsus2 D G Em7 A D G
[Verse 2]
DSun burn summers and frostbite winter
G G D/F#Kids were plainly dressed
Em7 A Asus4Left the farmhouse when he was old enough, and
D GHeaded out west
DFrom California to Southern Africa
G G D/F#And all the way to France
Em7 AAnd on to England to meet my mother in
D G G D/F#Nineteen-eighty-one
[Chorus]
A GA feather on the ocean breeze
Bm A DHe went spinning and tumbling 'cross the sea
Em G ANever known where he'd come down
DOr who he'd be
A GLike heather on the hillside
Bm A DHe was bruised and he was battered by the breeze
Em7 G ASearching for a place
DTo be free
[Bridge]
GOh, and like a seed
GmThat is flying in the wind
D A BmIn search of water, soil, and sun
Em7 E9And the birds and the bees
A Asus4 ATo have it all along
[Verse 3]
DNow here I am, thirty-three years down
GTwo-thousand-seventeen
Em7 A Asus4 DI've seen the Rhineland, I've been to Vineland, I'm
GA feather on the breeze
