[Intro]

Em Em9 C D Em





Em                    Em9                C     D       Em

My days they are the highway kind, they only come to leave.

D                    Em                C     D       Em

The leaving I don't mind, it's the coming that I crave.

D             Em              D               C   Bm

Pour the sun upon the ground, stand to throw a shadow.

D             Em                  C        D        Em

Watch it grow into the night and feel the spinning sky.



Em             Em9                C     D       Em

Time among the pine trees, it felt like breath of air.

D             Em                C     D       Em

Usually I just walk this streets and tell myself to care.

D             Em        D         C       Bm

Sometimes I believe me; sometimes I don't hear.

D             Em            C      D       Em

Sometimes the shape I'm in, won't let me go.



Em               Em9                    C          D       Em

I don't know too much for true but my heart knows how to pound.

D                    Em                C           D       Em

My legs know how to love someone; my voice knows how to sound.

D                  Em        D         C       Bm

Shame that it's not enough; shame that it is a shame.

D             Em            C      D       Em

Follow the circle down, where would you be?



Em               Em9                    C     D       Em

You're the only one I want and I've never heard your name.

D                  Em          C           D       Em

Let's hope we meet someday, if we don't it's all the same.

D                  Em        D         C       Bm

I'll meet the ones between us, and be thinking about you;

D                  Em               C      D       Em

and all the places I have seen and why you were not there.
