[A] And [Bm] he [G] passed my days [D] alone [Bm] Adrift on an [E] ocean of [A] loneliness
[A] [G] My dreams [A] like nets were [D] thrown To [A] catch [D] the light that I sought
In the [Bm] books and the [G] films and the [D] songs [F#m] Now there's a [E] world of illusion [A] and fantasy
[G] In the place [E] where the real world [D] belongs Till [G] I look for the [A] beauty in the [D] song
[F#m] Fill my head [A] and lead me on [G] Though my [A] dreams have come up [D] torn and empty
[A] As many times as love has come [G] and gone
[D] I was just [A] a lonely run [Bm] To the laughter [G] we [D] shared at the meals
[Bm] I [E] filled the [A] kitchen and the rooms [G] With my [A] schemes and my broken [D] wheels
[E] It was never clear [A] how far near [Bm] The gates to [G] my citadel lay
[D] They [Bm] were cutting [E] through stones [A] Some dreams of their own
[G] But they listened to [A] mine anyway [D] I'm [G] not sure [A] what I'm trying to [D] say
It [F#m] could be I've [A] lost my way [G] Though I [A] keep a watch over [D] the distance
Heaven's [A] no closer than it was [G] yesterday And the [A] angels are all
[F#]
[Bm] They know not to [D] wait up for the [G] sun They look over [D] my shoulder
[C#m] [Bm] At the maps and the joy [E] Of the journey I've [A] begun

I [G] keep thinking [A] I'll find what I'm [D] looking for In [A] the sand beneath the [G] dawn
[D] But the angels are older [F#] They [Bm] can see [E] that the sun's setting [G] fast
They look over [D] my shoulder At [Bm] the vision [D] of paradise
[E] And came in the light [A] They lay down behind me
[F#] To sleep beside [Bm] the road [D] Till the morning has [G] come
But I know they [D] will find me [Bm] With my maps and my faith
And [G] the distance [A] moving farther
