Intro: Am C (pick)

Let him come into the city
Let him find his lucky penny
Let him put it in his pocket
And shake it all around

Verse: Am C (strum) (listen to the record)

I?ve been to pretty buildings, all in search for you
I have lit all the candles, sat in all the pews
The desert had been done before,
But I didn?t even care
I got sand in both my shoes and scorpions in my hair
I saw that

Chorus: D  D  Am C Am C (play with the record and you will get it)

Oh the distance is not do-able
In these bodies of clay my brother
Oh the distance, it makes me uncomfortable
Guess it?s natural to feel this way

D  (C) (B) D  Am C

Oh, let?s hold out for somethin? sweeter
Spread your wings and fly

Verse: Am C

My cat became the church and I
The worshipper of silence there
In a moment peace came over me
And the one who was breatin? my heart appeared and....

Chorus: D  D  Am C Am C

Oh the distance is not do-able
In these bodies of clay my brother
Oh the distance, it makes me uncomfortable
Guess it?s natural to feel this way



D  (C) (B)  D  (C) (B) D

Oh, are we locked into these bodies?
Lets hold out for somethin? sweeter
Spread your wings and fly

Solo: Am C

D  (C) (B)  D  (C) (B) D

Oh, are we locked into these bodies?
Are we anything at all?
Let?s hold on for somethin? sweeter
Spread your wings and fly

Am C

This distance  is dreamin?
We?re already there tonight

Am C  

Let him come into the city
Let him find his lucky penny
Let him put it in his pocket
And shake it all around
