[G] [C] [D] [Am] [Em]
Intro: Begin by strumming just the top strings holding down the G chord
Then play: C D
[C] [D]
[C] [G] [D]
[C]And so to be one to lie to the captain
[D]Sure I'm coming back
[C]But I walk along and meet up a tree line
[D]Cover up at last
[Am]And they're raging at the [G]beach for some [D]light
But like the [G]birds I was [C]given all this [D]time
[C]And to stop believing in the returning
[D]I went on
[C]So vaguely I still hear the bands but not
[D]What's going on
[Am]I guess they're raging at the [G]beach for some [D]light
But like the [G]birds they're [C]forgiven every [D]time
[Am]But then I know that I'm a [D]stranger in this land
And I [G]wake you up by speaking what you [C]cannot understand, no
[Am]All I said was there were [D]mountains in my way
[G]But they're slowly disappearing
And I [C]balance when I feel you to my [Am]skin
D (let it ring out) C
In times like these even travelers can win
Break: C D
[C] [D]
[C]To be high in trees when they walk
[D]Just forth and back and out
[C]And the vessel's gone and I will stay to
[D]Figure this one out
[Am]I bet they're raging in the [G]seas for some [D]light
And like all [G]birds they're [C]given all this [D]time
[Am]And now I hold on fall is greeting me to [D]stay
And we [G]slow dance in the kitchen and I [C]dream the days away, oh
[Am]And just like Lucinda's you are right on [D]time
There are [G]louder cities somewhere
But I d[C]on't think I'll be back where ringing [Am]stays
D (let it ring) C
In a place like this I should never feel afraid
Break: C D
[C] [D]
(single strums)
[G]Get [C]aroun[G]d
[C]This is [G]handsome [D]life
[G]I guess my [C]rhythm [G]grew
[C]Through my [G]darker [D]time, oh
[C]I was not the killer I was one just [D]setting sail
[C]With the fear of sideway winds just turning
[D]Downward with the hail
Oh[Am], I was raging in the [G]field for some [D]light
But like the [G]birds I was [C]forgiven with this [D]time
Break: C D
[C] [D]
[Am]In this sunlight I just can't believe your [D]face
We're some [G]laundry line believers
We're just [C]kids in many ways, oh
[Am]And you smell like smoke and honey in my [D]arms
I'm [G]somewhere in some falling and I'm [C]learning of your language for to [Am]say
D (let it ring) C
In times like these I should never grow away
Outro: C D
[C] [D]
[G]end o[C]n D
