[G]
I spend a week drinking the sunlight of Winnetka, California
Where they understand the weight of human hearts
See sorrow gets too heavy and joy it tends to hold ya
With the fear that it eventually departs
[C] And the truth is [G] I've been dreaming of some tired, tranquil place
Where the weather [D] won't get trapped [G] inside my bones
[C] And if all these [D] years of searching [G] find one sympathetic [E]
face
[C] Then it's there I'll plant [D] these seeds and make [G] more
I spent a day dreaming of dying in Mesa, Arizona
Where all the grain of life had turned to ash
And I felt I was on fire with the things I could have told you
I just assumed that you eventually would ask
And I wouldn't [D] have to bring up my so [G] badly [E] broken [G] heart
And all those months I just wanted to sleep
And the spring [D] it did come slowly, I guess it did [E] its part
[C] My heart has [D] thought and continues to beat
[G]
I visited my brother on the outskirts of Olympia
Where the forest and the water become one
And we talked about our childhood like a dream we were convinced of
The perfect peaceful street that we came from
And I know [D] he heard me strumming all those sad and simple [Em]
chords
As I sat [G] inside my room so long ago
[C] And it hurts [D] that he's still shaking [G] from those secrets that [E] were told
[G] By a car closed up too tight and a heart turning cold
[F]
And I went to San Diego in the birthplace of the summer
And watched the ocean dance under the moon
And there was a girl I knew there, one more pretentious lover
I guess that something's gotta happen soon
[C] Cause I know I can [D] keep living in this dead or [Em] dying dream
And as I [D] walked along the beach [G] and drank with her
I thought about my true love, the one I really [E] need
With [C] eyes that [D] burn so bright they [G] make me pure
They make me pure, they make me pure
I [D] long to be [G] with you
They make me pure, they make me pure
I long to be with you
