Riff 2:
(Riff 1)
I find the map and draw a straight line
Over rivers, farms, and state lines
The distance from here to where you'd be
It's only finger-lengths that I see
I touch the place where I'd find your face
My finger in creases of distant dark places
(Riff 2)
I hang my coat up in the first bar
There is no peace that I've found so far
The laughter penetrates my silence
As drunken men find flaws in science
(Riff 2)
Their words mostly noises
Ghosts with just voices
Your words in my memory
Are like music to me

[Refrão]
Bm D
I'm miles from where you are,
A G
I lay down on the cold gound
Bm D
I, I pray that something picks me up
A G
And sets me down in your warm arms

[Próxima Parte]
(Riff 2)
After I have travelled so far
We'd set the fire to the third bar
We'd share each other like an island
Until exhausted, close our eyelids
And dreaming, pick up from
The last place we left off
Your soft skin is weeping
A joy you can't keep in

[Trecho 2x]
[Refrão] (repetir)

Good for beginners, with a few chords and fairly simple shapes.

  • Start at 60 BPM. Speed up once you can keep time without stopping.
  • Practice the two hardest chord changes first, then go back to the whole song.
  • Use the transpose button if the key feels uncomfortable for your voice or the chord shapes you know.
