Standing Still

[Intro] G

      G                      G
Well away from the city they carried my life
          G                         G
I'd grown tired of the way that the day treats the night
       G
And no matter how far I ran
   G
No matter how far I ran
G                                        G
Follow the railroad the only thing dry
    C
The path does narrow as angela's eyes
   G
No matter how far I ran
   C
No matter how far I ran
   Am            C
Oh may my soul be found
G
Brother
D
Brother

Am                 C
Here's where I belong
      G
I was born by the water the wealth of the sea
    C
And infants awaken with ominous dreams
      G
And I traveled the world till the waltzin the streets
   D
No matter how far I ran
   Am            G
Oh may my soul be found
       G
On the tail of a hurricane, the trick of the trade
       D
I stay angry at angels that stand in the way
           C
Who wore a halo of smoke from a passing train

Now the seat at my table's been taken away
        G
I'm the same man now that I was when I changed
         C
See, the birth of a star is a death of it's fate
     G                                          C
Rise up like the water and fall like the rain a lung

Full of air from an oxygen tank
G
Brother
D
Brother
Am             C
Make my soul be found
    G
Now mother
D
Father
   Am                C
Oh here's where I belong
      G                 D                        C
Lay me down, and let my love live forever in this ground
