[B] [E]
[B] [F#] [B] [E]
[B] [F#] [B] [E]
[B] [F#] [E]
[B] [F#] [B] Behind the wheel, against the road, next to you, the central coast.
The central thought within my mind is how to stay [C#] within these lines, but still be free.
[B] Beneath the ground, the giants sleep, [C#] and maybe we're [B] just in their dreams.
The setting sun with every turn, [F#] above the ground the oak [C#] trees burn.
And they weep [B] for rain.
[E]
[B] And for this endless [E] conversation,
[B] [F#] instigated [B] by the stars.
[E]
[B] [F#] [B] [E] Pocket knife, an old guitar, [F#] coffee cup, [B] a deck of cards.
Kore, kore, dashboard feet, [F#] flashlight children by the stream.
[E] A box of books, a book of rocks, one for the birds, [B] one for the knots.
That I will learn how to tie [F#] around this day to keep my life from sliding [B] away.
[E]
[B] [F#] From this [B] endless [E] conversation,
[B] [F#] instigated [B] by the [E] stars.
[B] [F#] A little wood [B] to keep it burning, [E]
[B] [F#] fascinated [E] by it all.
[B] [E]
[B] [F#] [B] [E]
[B] [F#] [B] [G#]
[F#] [B] [G#]
[G#m] [F#] [B] First away, we'll stoke the coals, [G#] the early morning [B] red will rose.
The last one in the swing will break, [F#] stones will stack, the kids will make.
Those lines, [B] rocks are boxing by the creek, again the lines begin to speak.
[E] Words are [B] broken, smoke signals that will lead us into the light.
[G#] Into it all, [B] and always.
[E]
[B] [F#] Always in [B] this [E] conversation,
[B] [F#] implicated [B] by the stars.
[E]
[B] [F#] A little wood [B] to keep it [E] burning,
[B] [F#] fascinated [E] by it all.
[B] Always.
