Verse 1: (B A E A)
B                                        A
Well I ran away, I walked a fine line, a waste of time, no need to find
E                                  A
You will call and I thank mine and to remind me I am fine
B                                A
What you are is what you see and you see me and we can be
    E                              A
Something we can call we.. we are, we are, we are

Verse 2: (B A E A)
B                                   A
I have seen these clothes because I woke up on this road before
E                                       A
Picked it apart for hours and hours and hours and hours
   B                     A
Of turning, tossing, and looking and listening
   E                                    A
To you and all the fucked up things you do... But you're

Chorus: (B E A B)
B                             E
If someday comes early, comes whipping comes whirling
   A                         B
To take you for all you have learned
B                            E
The tables are turning, your bridges are burning
   A                         B
My destination sometime to return

Verse: (B A E A)
B                            A
Throw away your calendar and saddle up your salamander
E                         A
Get up and get down, ride into town and look around
B                            A
Get up and do something it's your time to choose it,
E                              B
do it, do it, do it, do it, do it!

Chorus
B                          E
If one day you wake up and find what you make up
A                                 B
Come and get me, come and take me there
B                        E
Into your illusion, I'll make my intrusion
A                     B
Anytime, anyplace, anywhere
