D5                  G5
  I was born in Omaha
                      B5
In my mother's tired arms
                          A5
After all our fight was gone
                              D5
I bet it felt good just to lie there
                       G5
Drinking in the warm light
                           B5
And breathing through the tubes
                          A5                    G5
As our lovers filled the room with conversation

G5

D5                        G5
  I was named to bear you like
                B5
A float in a parade
              A5                  D5
My piano fingers tugging at the cord
                  G5
And so much extra skin
                           B5
That I still can't fill it in
                           A5
Wonder whose it could have been
                               G5 *
'Cause it don't fit me comfortably
                      B5
And the nurses stopping in
                    A5
To see that you are fine
G5 *               B5
   To open up the blinds
                    A5
And shower you with sunshine

D5                  G5
  I was born in Omaha
                          B5
Born to steal her skeptic heart
              A5                   D5
My piano fingers tugging at the cord
                        G5
'Cause life in a bubble can be
                   B5
The sweetest thing sometimes
                            A5
With the world just passing by
                   G5
Outside your window
