G5  D5       F5
how lonely I find
     Bb5  C5 D5 G5
will tend to my mind
D5        Bb5    D5
along this mossy trail
    G5  D5       F5
and how coyly it hides
    Bb5   C5 D5 G5
the truth about how
   D5    Bb5      D5
it is we can ask how

Bb5          C5
crowds jump to their deaths
Eb5                       Bb5    F5
from the bridges I drive by tonight
Bb5                   C5
they miss out on it all
                            Eb5
the whole gist that as they fall
                            Bb5
you're not expected to know why
            F5
it's such a short time
F5
and there are stanzas never meant to rhyme

G5  D5       F5
far better I find
  Bb5 C5   D5 G5     D5
it is when we try to spend
Bb5      D5
the ??? ????
G5   D5      F5
with no real rationale
   Bb5  C5  D5 G5         D5
we step out of bounds and think
      Bb5       D5
and escape the lies

    Bb5
and we've marched,
C5          Eb5
so long but we've much farther
           Bb5      F5
than we've gone to go
    Bb5               C5
and we'll make a new ship
                   Eb5
cristen it for the trip
                      Bb5        F5
with a toddler at the helm this time
F5
and there are things we never will define
