[D] [Em] [D]
[F#m] [D] [D]
[Em] [Dm] [F#m]
[Em] [D] It's a quiet street in someone's town [G] On strangers' feet I mark my ground
[F#m] I trace my circles round and round I'm [Em] sworn to [A] find me
In [D] a party scene and I just got loose It's [Em] my devil's luck to be introduced
[F#m] The one who takes their shape like [Em] you It unbinds [A] me
[G] You knew we [D] wouldn't have everything And [E] time [A] proves it true
[D] I've got a [G] flat top [D] sitz Dressed in steel strings
And [E] I don't love [Em] you [D] You wouldn't like the [Bm] life
And I couldn't [G] want you to [A]
[D] There's a secret in this solitude
[Em] As my love unfolds I find it's often [F#m] crude I call you late and my words intrude
[Em] And I falter [A] But [D] the miles don't shrink by [Em] telephone
The crackling wire becomes our [F#m] home I tell you I'm okay alone
And [Em] then I wonder [A] I've [G] got towns [D] ahead and shows [A] behind
And on [E] below [G] I join my [D] name on that solid [E] line
And it [Em] always costs [D] But it [A] takes my [Bm] time and it fills my [G] mind
And it feeds [A] the [E] ghost [D] of memories In the quiet heat
[Em] When our words were trim and our hope was neat
[D] We said our purpose here was to be complete [Em] With I want you
[A]
[D] It's a woman's dream this autonomy [Em] Where the lines connect and the point stays free
[D] We said [F#m] passion has an open sea We'd [Em] only haunt [A] you
[G] I watched the last cab [D] turn its headlights [E] down To the [A] day's [Em] sunrise
[G] [D] And [E] it's no [Em] surprise [D] [Bm] That one alone don't sit you down
[Em] By [Em] my love, by [A]
