D ( riff 1 )
a ballerina in phoeni
xd ( riff 2 )
the pines up north
D ( riff 1 )
the sunrise from a highway
G D
that was not there before

D G D
if i can place it all together
D G D
make out the nature of the call
D G D
i start to feel the love and the silence
D G D
that was always at the root of it all

Em/G D
and in my constant quest for truth
Em/G D
i Am condemned to facts alone
G /G# Em
and though my dreams all lead me nowhere
Em/G ( g? ) A D
i wont forget my way back home

from the corner of a coffee shop
or from the center of a stage
from the words used in a love note
or from an empty page

while i struggle with these beauties
and my renditions end up dry
im like a bird that crashes into the window
that was drawn to the reflection of the sky

and the more i try to speak
the more i lose that earthly tone
and before heaven proves me hopeless
i wont forget my way back home

D Am G D
ooh oooh ooh ooh ooh ooh . . . . .

G D
i admit that these answers that i seek
C D
are all to questions ive never known
G Em G Em
but i pray to keep on looking for as long as i can roam
G Em
and when the world finally fulfills me
A D
i will not forget my way back home
