       A5                                            G5
If I trust in the wind she will pave me a different road
        A5                                                   G5
I will try and start over but I think I must choose someone else
       A5                                                          G5
I am pulled from the pages where the letters lack the pigment of trust

         F5                          G5
must be on my way, I?ve got to get home
          F5                         G5
won?t be back someday, so let it unfold

( A5 G5 )
        A5                                           G5
I?ve abandoned the outcome in search of the rest I deserve
        A5                                                  G5
you can do what you will with my body but I won?t ring the bell
        A5                                     G5
I?ve omitted the chapters that bow and admit defeat

         F5                          G5
must be on my way, I?ve got to get home
          F5                         G5
won?t be back someday, so let it unfold

A/F#5  F5
I A5 A5 mountain
               G5        A/F#5   
of cavernous people 
F5                                  G5
searching for a lighthouse in the fog
(Repeat twice)

( A5 G5 )
          A5                                                 G5
of the flowers that grew from the cracks in the ground you paved
        A5                                                          G5
didn?t you think he would warn me through the thorns of my waking dreams
           A5                                    G5
when the riddles connected the dots of this constellation

         F5                          G5
must be on my way, I?ve got to get home
          F5                         G5
won?t be back someday, so let it unfold

A/F#5  F5

B5                                      C5
I found a reason to leave you with this load
B5                                   C5
all I can do is forgive your broken heart
B5                                           C5
trapped in this tower made of amber for too long
B5                                   C5
all I can do is forgive your broken heart
