F  C                            F  C                                                    Am  
     Know a man... His    face SEEMED pulled and tense...
                          F  C                                                                            G/F    A2  Am  
Like he's riding on a motorbike... in the strongest    winds
                  F                            C                                                    F                            C  
So I approach with tact... suggest that he should relax
          F                            C              G/F              F  
But he's always moving much too fast
                                                                             Am  A2  Am                                                                    A2  Am  
Said he'll see me on the flipside...              of this trip he's taken for a ride
                          F  C                 F                    C            F              C  
He's been takin'... too much on... off he goes
                                F      C    G/F  A2  Am                      F                    C  
with his perfectly un--kept    clothes... there he goes
 F    C    Am)  
             F                            C            F  C  
He's yet to come back... but I see his picture
F  C                                         F         C                      Am                      F              C  
     Doesn't look the same up on the rack... we go way back
F                                                    Am  A2    Am                                                                                    A2      Am  
I wonder 'bout his insides... it's like his thoughts are too big for his size
                          F  C                                    F                 C                 F              C  
He's been taken... Where?    I don't know... off he goes
                                F      C    G/F  A2  Am              F                    C  
with his perfectly un--kept    hope... there he goes
                          F              C                                    F            C  
And now I rub my eyes... for he has returned
F  C                            F            C                                    G/F                      A2  Am  
     Seems my preconceptions are what should have been    burned
          F                    C  
For he still smiles... and he's still STRONG
F  C                                                                         F                    C                            G/F    A2  Am  
     Nothing's changed but the surrounding bullshit... that has      grown
F                              C         F                      C  
And now he's home and we're laughing
F                                    C              F                 C                                      Am  
Like we always did... my same old... same old friend
                     F                         C                                         F                              C  
Until a quarter to ten... I saw the strain creep in
F  C                                                                    F                      C                                         G/F  A2  Am  
     He seemed distracted and I know just what is going to hap-pen      next
                             F            C                 F                      C  
Before his first step... he is off again
