intro : Em Em9 C D Em

Em Em9 C D Em
my days they are the highway kind , they only come to leave .
D Em C D Em
the leaving i don’t mind , it’s the coming that i crave .
D Em D C Bm
pour the sun upon the ground , stand to throw a shadow .
D Em C D Em
watch it grow into the night and feel the spinning sky .

Em Em9 C D Em
time among the pine trees , it felt like breath of air .
D Em C D Em
usually i just walk this streets and tell myself to care .
D Em D C Bm
sometimes i believe me; sometimes i don’t hear .
D Em C D Em
sometimes the shape i’m in , won’t let me go .

Em Em9 C D Em
i don’t know too much for true but my heart knows how to pound .
D Em C D Em
my legs know how to love someone; my voice knows how to sound .
D Em D C Bm
shame that it’s not enough; shame that it is a shame .
D Em C D Em
follow the circle down , where would you be?

Em Em9 C D Em
you’re the only one i want and i’ve never heard your name .
D Em C D Em
let’s hope we meet someday , if we don’t it’s all the same .
D Em D C Bm
i’ll meet the ones between us , and be thinking about you;
D Em C D Em
and all the places i have seen and why you were not there .
