Feather Lyrics & Chords By Cornmeal

Feather words and music by Kris Nowak

Wherever the wind will take me is where I belong
I will always follow everything that is wrong
Backyards or alleyways, desert plains
You won't here me complain that it's all just the same
and I know that it's got to be this way

The feather in the breeze, I keep floating along
Always twisting turning towards the light of the dawn
Lost in the dusty haze of grain and maze
When the time comes I know I will find a resting place
Still I know it's got to be this way

Well who knows where I came from, who knows where I'll go
Who knows who will find me, no one will ever know
and I know it's got to be this way

Somewhere in a ravine along the side of the road
A blown out tire has left some sad soul waiting for a tow
All his life he's been running late, now he's got nothing but time to sit and contemplate
and he says why God does it have to be this way

And in his anger he questions all of life and what it all means
And at that moment he sees this weathered feather in the breeze
As he wonders from where it came, it lands softly on his shoulder and tells him its all okay
Don't you know it's got to be this way

Got to be this way
Got to be this way
Just why it's got to be this way

Someday you'll see just why it's got to be this way
Someday you'll see just why it's got to be this way
Just why it's got to be this way
