Travis - Driftwood Acoustic

driftwood by travis

capo 2

[ verse 1 ]
G Cadd9
everything is open
D
nothing is set in stone
G Cadd9
rivers turn to ocean
D
oceans tide you home
G Cadd9
home is where the heart is
D
but your heart had to roam
G Cadd9
drifting over bridges
D
never to return
watching bridges burn

[ chorus ]
G D Am
you’re driftwood floating underwater
C
breaking into pieces , pieces , pieces
G D Am
just driftwood hollow and of no use
C
waterfalls will find you , bind you , grind you

[ verse 2 ]
G Cadd9
nobody is an island
D
everyone has to go
G Cadd9
pillars turn to butter
D
butterflying low
G Cadd9
low is where your heart is
D
but your heart has to grow
G Cadd9
drifting under bridges
D
never with the flow

[ bridge ]
Am D
and you really didn’t think it would happen
Am D
but it really is the end of the line
G D Am
so i’m sorry that you turned to driftwood
C G
but you’ve been drifting for a long , long time

[ instrumental ]

Am – D – Am – D
Am – D – Am – Am

[ verse 3 ]
G Cadd9
everywhere there’s trouble
D
no where’s safe to go
G Cadd9
pushes turn to shovels
D
shoveling the snow
G Cadd9
frozen you have chosen
D
the path you wish to go
G Cadd9
drifting now forever
D
and forever more
until you reach your shore

[ chorus ]

[ bridge ]

[ ending ]
Am G
you’ve been drifting for a long , long time
Am
you’ve been drifting for a long , long
C G
drifting for a long , long time
