Sittin' out here, listening to the wind
Em                F               C                F
I just called to tell you that I miss you my old friend

Last year we bought a house outside the Boulder

You know how Kathie always missed that Rocky Mountains sky

She said 'let's move before my folks get any older
             Dm                    C            G
So they can see their grane kids grew up for a while'
             Dm             G             C
I was just thinking of the days we ran together
 Dm                 G               C           F
Driving 'cross the country in that rusty campervan
          Dm                        G            C
Pleasing one night stands, seems luggage been forever

Sitting here like this sometimes I miss the band

Yesterday your song came on a radio
              Dm                G               C                  F
You know it felt like you were singing right across the stage from me
        Dm              G                           C             F
And I remember how I betrayed what you felt when I said I had to go
            Dm               F          G
But now I know that both of us landed where we're supposed to be
