VERSE ONE 
E5                    D5 
My days, they are the highway kind 
 C5           D5       E5 
...they only come to leave 
 C5         D5              E5 
...but the leavin' I don't mind 
 C5          D5            E5 
...it's the comin' that I crave. 


D5            E5 
Pour the sun upon the ground 
 D5                  C5   E5 
...stand to throw a sha-dow 
 D5                 E5 
...watch it grow in-to a night 
    C5         D5      E5 
and fill the spinnin' sky. 

VERSE TWO 
E5             D5 
Time among the pine trees 
 C5           D5         E5 
...felt like breath of air 
 C5           D5                E5 
...usually I just walk these streets 
 C5      D5         E5 
...tell myself to care. 


D5           E5 
Sometimes I believe me 
 D5             C5     E5 
...sometimes I don't hear. 
 D5               E5 
...Sometimes the shape I'm in 
C5     D5     E5 
won't let me go. 


VERSE THREE (Chorded as above) 

Well, I don't know too much for true 
but my heart knows how to pound 
my legs know how to love someone 
my voice knows how to sound. 
Shame that it's not enough 
shame that it is a shame. 
Follow the circle down 
where would you be? 

VERSE FOUR (Chorded As Above) 

You're the only one I want now 
I never heard your name. 
Let's hope we meet some day 
if we don't it's all the same. 
I'll meet the ones between us, 
and be thinkin' 'bout you 
and all the places I have seen 
and why you where not there....end
