::Intro::
em - A4/E - em
em - A4/E - em

:Verse #1::
em   A4/E
Ran out of time
               em
running my mouth
em  A4/E 
Ran up a tab and
             em
all the way from
A7/G
Kalamazoo

Asus4  A  Bsus4  B   Gadd2
On my way back home

Asus4  A  Bsus4  B   Gadd2
I was surely stoned,

B7                             CM7
   now I'm sober in my yard
G
Can believe I was there?
B
Can believe I've been anywhere else?

::Riff::
em - A4/E - em
em - A4/E - em

                 G
But there was a time
    D/F#
I almost forgot
em7                   D
we had been drifting all

the way from
f#m7
Kalamazoo, and I said that
G
I loved you too

bm7      G        F#
All the way back home

::Riff::
em - A4/E - em
em - A4/E - em

::Verse #2::
em               A4/E 
There's an old joke
                   em
I just made up
em            A4/E 
How many of me
              em
would it take to
A7sus4/G
screw up your life?

Asus4  A  Bsus4  B  Gadd2
One to settle down,
Asus4  A  Bsus4  B  Gadd2
one to turn you around

                      B7     CM7
Now I'm sober in my yard
Gmaj7
I would say you had to be there,

Gmaj7
I forget that you're
B7
still there

CM7
CM7                   Gmaj7
Seems like you'd be frozen,

Gmaj7
frozen there in time
Gmaj7
Waving your goodbyes


Gmaj7        em
Up to the sky

::Jam::

em - A - em - D - C
em - D - C - em

::Interlude::
em - A4/E - em

                   G
You place on the map
      D/F#
has faded away
 em7
Used to be lost in
D
more than one way
f#m7
Kalamazoo, don't you know that
GM9
I've been there too
                           f#m7
and it'd put your mind more at ease
                              G
If you'd say these words of release
bm7     GM9       F#
All the way back home
