Verse 1
I'm fixing a hole where the rain gets in,
And stops my mind from wandering.
Where it will go __
Verse 2
I'm filling the cracks that ran through the door,
And kept my mind from wandering.
Where it will go __
Bridge 1
And it really doesn't matter if I'm wrong, I'm right, where I belong,
I'm right where I belong.
See the people standing there who disagree and never win,
And wonder why they don't get in my door.
Verse 3
I'm painting the room in a colourful way,
And when my mind is wandering,
There I will go __ Hey, hey!

Bridge 2
And it really doesn't matter if I'm wrong, I'm right, where I belong,
I'm right, where I belong.
Silly people run around, who worry me and never ask me,
Why they don't get past my door.
Verse 4
I'm taking the time to do a number of things,
That weren't important yesterday,
And I still go __
Verse 5
I'm fixing a hole where the rain gets in,
And stops my mind from wandering.
Where it will go __
Where it will go __
[Coda] (Fade)
I'm fixing a hole where the rain gets in,
And stops my mind from wandering.
Where it will go __

Notes.
1. This version arose from an attempt to harmonise the melody on an acoustic
without barre chords. It differs structurally from any previous versions in that
it matches the distinct three chord outro on the Instrumental. It also adds some
extra texture to the latter part of each Verse and adds a haunting quality to the
Bridges.
2. The transitional chords 'Dm7-Dm6-G7/D' are successively created by lifting off
one finger at a time from the three-fingered 'Dm7'.
