CAPO 1
---

 Verse 1:
F         C       F                   F     C          G
She got down on hands and knees, one ear against the ground
       F       C        F                       F        C      G
holding her breath to hear something, but the dirt made not a sound tonight


---

 Interlude:
F C F    F C G   x2   (As in the verse)

---


 Verse 2:
F      C    F                    F      C       G
Echoes of songs still lurk on distant foreign shores, where we
F      C    F                        F    C       G
danced just to please the gods that only ask for more 


---

 Bridge:
           Am                  G                 F
And so it goes, but still we give ourselves to this
                     F                C
we can't spend our lives waiting to live


---


 Chorus:
               G
On cold nights
                 F
in a prayer for dawn
            F
but the daylight
                C
isnt what she wants

             G
the concrete
                F
calls my name again
      F
im falling
                      C
through the cracks I slip


---

 Interlude

 Verse 3:
                        F   
The postcard says wish you were here
         F    C       G
but Id rather I was there, holding
F   C       F             F      C      G
on to the simple things before they disappear


---

 Bridge:
              Am                   G                 F
Thats what I meant, but that was then, and this is now
             F               C
I'll make it up to you somehow


---

 Chorus

---

C             G  
 A destination, A fading smile

F               G 
 Another station, Another mile

C                G
 Another day gone, I swore that i will

F                     G                C
 Be there before dawn, So be there i will

----

 Verse 4:
F        C        F                   F     C          G
She got down on hands and knees, one ear against the ground,
       F       C       F
holding her breath to hear something, anything at all
F                      F~                C
The dirt whispered, "Child, I'm coming home."
