[Bm]
I find the ma[A]p and draw a str[G]aight line[Bm]
Over ri[A]vers, farms, and[G] state lines[Bm]
The dis[A]tance from me to[G] where you'd be[Bm]
It's on[A]ly finger-length[G]s that I see[Bm]
I touch the pl[A]ac[G]e [Bm]
where I'd find your [A]fa[G]ce[Bm]
My fingers in crea[A]ses[G] [Bm]
of distant dark places[A] [G] [Bm]
[Bm]
I hang my co[A]at up in t[G]he first bar[Bm]
There is no p[A]eace that [G]I've felt so [Bm]far
The laughter [A]penetrates[G] my silence[Bm]
As drunken me[A]n find fla[G]ws in science[Bm]
Their words mostly no[A]is[G]es[Bm]
Ghosts with just voi[A]ce[G]s[Bm]
Your words in my me[A]mo[G]ry[Bm]
Are like music to m[A]e[G] [Bm]
[Bm]I'm miles from where you[D] are,
[A]I lay down on the cold g[G]round
[Bm]I pray that something pi[D]cks me up
[A]And sets me down in your[Cadd9] warm arms
[Bm]
After I[A] have trav[G]elled so far[Bm]
We'd set t[A]he fire to[G] the third ba[Bm]r
We'd share e[A]ach other [G]like an islan[Bm]d
Until exhau[A]sted, clos[G]e our eyelids[Bm]
And dreaming pink wil[A]df[G]ir[Bm]e
The last place we left[A] o[G]ff[Bm]
Your soft skin is w[A]ee[G]pi[Bm]ng
A joy you can't keep[A] i[G]t[Bm]
[Bm]I'm miles from where you[D] are,
[A]I lay down on the cold g[G]round
[Bm]And I pray that somethin[D]g picks me up
[A]and sets me down in your[Cadd9] warm arms
[Bm]I'm miles from where you[D] are,
[A]I lay down on the cold g[G]round
[Bm]I pray that something pi[D]cks me up
[A]and sets me down in your[Cadd9] warm arms
