ABmDGDA The heart is a bloom Shoots up through the stony ground ABmDGDA There's no room No space to rent in this town ABmDGDA You're out of luck And the reason that you had to care ABmDGDA The traffic is stuck And you're not mo_ving anywhere ABmDGDA You thought you'd found a friend To take you out of this place ABmDGDA Someone you could lend a hand In return for grace

ABmDGDA You're on the road But you've got no destination ABmDGDA You're in the mud In the maze of her imagina_tion ABmDGDA You love this town Even if that doesn't ring true ABmDGDA You've been all over And it's been all over you

EmD See the world in green and blue See China right in front of you EmGD See the canyons broken by cloud See the tuna fleets clearing the sea out EmGD See the Bedouin fires at night See the oil fields at first light and EmGD See the bird with a leaf in her mouth after the flood all the colors came out
A5B5D5G5D5A5 It was a beautiful day Don't let it get away A5B5D5G5D5A5 Beautiful day
F#mGDA Touch me Take me to that other place F#mGDA Reach me I know I'm not a hopeless case
