[Cm] _ _ _ [Bb] _ _ _ _ _
[A] _ I'm [C] traveling in some vehicle [A] _
[Bb] Sitting _ [F] in some cafe
_ _ [F] _
_ Ain't effective if the penny was The [G] church of no way
[C] _ _ [C] _ _ _ _ _
_ There's comfort in melancholy _ _ [Bb]
When _ [F] there's no need to explain _ _
_ [Bb] It's just [F] as natural as the weather And the [C] smoothie sky _ today
_ _ And [F] our possessive [F] coupling _ So _ [C]
much could not be expressed
_ So [F] now I am returning to [G] myself _ _ [A] These things that [G] you and I suppress
_ _ _ [F] I see something of myself in everyone Just [C] at this moment of the world
The snow [G] gathers at both our _ blades _ _ _ [F]
Waltzing on a [G] ballroom go
_ [A] _ _ _ [D] _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ [Eb] _
_ _ _ [Bb] _ _ _ _ [C]
You know it never [G] has been easy _ _ [Bb]
Whether [Eb] you do [F] or you do not resign
_ [Bb] _
_ [F] Whether you travel the breadth of extremities Or stick to [C] some straighter [G] line
[C] _ _ _ _ _
Now here's a man [E] and a woman sitting on a rock _ _ They're either gonna [F] thaw out or freeze
Listen!
_ Strains of ollie western coming through the snow in a pine [C] retreat
_ _ [D] _ _ _ [C] _ [D] I am [F] porous with travel fever But you know [C] I'm so glad to be on my _ way
Still [F] somehow the slightest touch of a [G] stranger Can set up a trembling in my bone
_ _ _ [F]
No one's gonna show me everything _ We [C]
all come and go unknown
_ _ Each [G] so deep and superficial _ _ Between [F] the forceps and the stone
While _ _ [Am] _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ [Bb] _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ [C] _
_ [G] I looked at the granite [C] marker _ _ Those _ tributes to finality, to eternity
_ And then I looked at [F] myself here Chicken [C]-scratching for _ immortality _ _ _ _ _
In the [G] church they light the candle _ [F] And _ the wax rolls down like tears
[C] _
_ There is the hope [F] of hopelessness That I've witnessed [C] for thirty years
_ _ _ We [F] are all particles of change And now I know
[C]
Opening around the sun But _ [F] how can I have that point of view
[G] _ Bounding _
[A] _ tight to [G] some white _ _ [F] _
flags of winter chimneys
_ _ _ [C]
Wave truce against the [G] moon In the mirrors of a modern band
_ _ In [A] the window of my hotel _ room _ _
_ _ _ _ [Am] _ _ _ [Eb] _
_ _ [Bb] _ _ _ [Eb] _ _ [C] _
_ I'm traveling [D] in some vehicle
_ _ [F] _
I'm sitting in some cafe _ _ _ Eight effector of the petty wars
Until love [C] sucks me back that way
