Intro:       E5 

E5        D5              C5
We saw gold when there was only dust

D5           C5             F#5                E5
in the worst we saw in us what no one else could 

E5             D5                C5
we traveled far and tramped the dirt down deep

D5           C5             F#5                 E5 
to where our souls could keep the time and never rest. 

D5                     C5                      E5
Mind the road flares watch the steep stairs pace yourself 

D5                      C5             E5
harbor your fate temptation, hate, destiny sells.
 

E5              D5                    C5
I've asked all the bitter, hapless, and broken down 

D5               C5              F#5        E5
they just return my frowns and tell me to forget 

E5             D5             C5
simplicity is not what i was hoping for 

D5              C5            F#5            E5
i thought it'd be much more than what i'd always dreamt. 

D5                 C5               E5
Read the roadmaps thumb through atlases and charts 

D5                    C5           E5
try to lose yourself in powder, booze and bars. 

E5           D5         C5
I'll return to all my favorite hunts

D5             C5          F#5          E5
frequent familiar spots i never really left 

E5           D5                C5
distance myself from scattered, lofty thoughts 

D5              C5          F#5           E5
make them resolute, destitute, vague and deaf.
