C
our course is coarsely plotted
     Cadd9/B
on a map of shoddy dreams
    Am
but hindsight will reveal
       G      F
time's moving faster than it seems

C
maybe i'm just selfish
         Cadd9/B
i've got nothing left to give
    Am
i'm still a foolish boy
     G     F                G
i've got a lifetime left to live

          E
and i was swinging like a madman
          F
not quite sure of what i felled
            C          Cadd9/B
and i might never understand
        Am              G
exactly what it was i'd held
          F
and now i watch the sun descending
          G
from this weathered gravel roof
      F
and i recall the sky once told me
Continues after the ad
         G
that all lies lead to the truth

        C                       Dm
so i'll look the other way
         E                      F
and i'll turn a deafened ear
         C                      Dm
and i'll talk of distant lands
        E                       F -
pretend i was never here
 G

C
reality beads on my skin
       Cadd9/B
like a slicker in the rain
          Am
but now i feel it soaking in
    G   F
and i begin to feel the pain

C
i fight the urge to run to you
        Cadd9/B
this is how it has to be
      Am                    G
we've gotta step away right now
      F                 G
we're just too close to see


          E
