I'm weary from this river

It flows far but never nearer to my 
  F
home

                         G7
And the war's upon the shores

         C               F
Keep the single girls indoors

       Dm                G     
And so all my love songs fall on 
           C
wasted ears

I grow tired of this highway, it 
runs far but never my way

            F
Don't you know

                      G7
But the company of strangers

        C                    
And the close and the present 
  F
dangers

        Dm                 G      
Seem to pick me up like an old 
          C
crow in the snow

          F        C       F
Cuz I'm a stranger in a strange land

        F        C        F
Guess I left the world behind

       G        D     G
And my love is like a galaxy

         C                B/C  Am
It seems slow but it sure does shine

    G                              
And when I'm gone you'll know me by
     F                  C
 the friends I leave behind

I'm weary of this losin'

What choice is there in choosin if 
     F
you find

                         G7
Yourself a stranger in a stranger 
place

          C                     F
With your beat up shoes and an old 
suitcase

      Dm                     G    
And a wrist watch that don't ever 
                  C
seem to tell the time

              C
But there's a warm and a gentle 
feeling, it ain't never worth 
concealin

        F
what you see

                         G7
and the reins inside my brains

          C              F
keeps the memories contained

      Dm                 G        
but i miss you like the wind 
        C
misses the trees
