G
Where the earth shows its bones of wind-broken stone,
D
And the sea and sky are one,
Am C
I'm all out of time, my blood sings with wine,
D
And I'm running naked in the sun
G
There's God in the trees, I'm weak in the knees,
D
And the sky is a painful blue
Am C D G
I'd like to look around, but, honey, all I see is you.
G
Well, the summer city lights will soften the night
D
Till you think that the air is clear,
Am C
I'm sitting with friends where forty-five cents
D
Will buy another glass of beer
G
He's got something to say, but I'm so far away
D
That I don't know who I'm talking to,
Am C D G
'Cause you just walked in the door, and, honey, all I see is you.
C
And I just want to hold you closer than,
G C G
I've ever held anyone before
C G
You say you've been twice a wife and you're through with life,
Am D
Ah, but, honey, what the hell's it for?
C
After twenty-three years you'd think I could find a way
G C G
To let you know, somehow,
Am
I wanna see your smiling face
D G
Forty-five years from now.
D
I've been reaching out to find a friend
Am C
Who knows all the words and sings so she's heard,
D
And knows how all the stories end
G
Maybe, after the show, she'll ask me
D
To go home with her for a drink or two
Am C D G
Now her smile lights her eyes, but, honey, all I see is you.
