[G]
[Em] I looked up and picked out a map [G] in the sky
No
[Em] need for the nude of the moon as I'm [G] guided by fireflies
They whisper prayers to my feet
[Em] I tiptoe through gardens minding the [G] slumber of parakeets
When the [C] lover's on [D] the way I [C] won't feel the pull [Am] of the coming day
Or [C]
[G] the [C] compromise [D] of sleep
[C] I got a fire on [Am] the soles of my feet
[D] [G]
I'm going as far as these crooked legs take me
Not stopping for water to cover the daisy
Not waiting for ribbons or metals to embrace me
Not washing the blood that is covered and stained me
[C] Oh, [D] to be [C] fooled by the [Am] wool that has covered me
Oh, [D] to be [C] led by the light of a melody
I'm
[D] [C]
[D] [C]
[Em]
[D] [G]
[Am] making my way while the [G] sun cannot save me
[Am] I'm watching the road with two [G] young eyes to guide me
[D] Not looking behind to [A] ensure that [G] the home fires are shrinking
The fireflies fade as the city lights find me
[C] Oh, [D] to be fooled [Am] by the wool that has covered me
[G] Oh, [C] [D] to be led [C] by the [Am] light of a melody
I'm
[C]
going as far as these crooked legs [Am] take me
[C] I'm watching the road with two young eyes to guide [Am] me
I'm
