Verse

D               Dsus4     D
I lie in the field in the trailer park of my dreams

D                         G
Saving up for someday but what does someday mean

        D
And I'm young but I'll let it slip on by

                        G
Be co-dependent and I'm lost inside

Chorus

    A                  G
And you, you look like freedom

                  D           G
You look like the avalanche I need

    D           G
The avalanche I need

Verse

              D  Dsus4  D
And there's a road....  leads away from here

                        G
And everyday I stand in place and I watch it disappear

              D Dsus4  D
And there's a bird.... circles in my mind

                        G
Security's the whore in me that never lets me fly

Chorus

    A                  G
And you, you look like freedom

    A                  G
And you, you look like change

                  D           G
You look like the avalanche I need

    D           G
The avalanche I need

Bridge

          Em                      C
With your sunburned soul and your hunger for the road

    Em                             C
I'm snowblind and I'm crying after like nothing matters

         Em                       C
When you go down take me when you go down, yeah, make me

Em              C                Em
Go down I got a hunger you could feed

Chorus

           D           G
You're the avalanche I need

    D           G
The avalanche I need

Verse

      D                            Dsus4
And I know it's a fine line divides

D                             G
The place I'm looking for and what's inside

      D
And I know it's a long, long way

D                        G
Through the outskirts of everyday

Chorus

    A                  G
And you, you look like freedom

A                  G
You, you look like change

                  D           G
You look like the avalanche I need

    D           G
The avalanche I need

D         G
Avalanche... to fade.
