This is a song about the rearview mirror, which is a weird place to hang out
Because like the ones in your car
[N] Like you drive and then the thing and it gets smaller and then it's [C] gone
Right, but then there's the other internal rearview mirror where the shapes grow bigger and larger according to one sort of calculus
But you sort of have to have faith that eventually you'll be far [Bb]
and be invisible
Right [Dm] outside your window
[F] [Gm] There's only friendly fields [Eb] and open roads
[Bb] Won't feel better when you think
[Dm] You've stepped back [F] from the brain
[Gm] And found some peace inside yourself [Eb] laying down your heavy load.
It gets [Bb] all right
[F] to [Eb] dream at night
[Bb] Believe in sheltering [Ab] skies and stable earth [Eb] below
But [Bb] when you see him, [F] you're home
[Bb]
It's okay to find the faith [F] disordered home
[Gm] With no fear of shadows spreading [Eb] where you stand
It [Bb] will breathe easier
Just knowing that [Dm] the worst is [Am] all behind you [Gm] and the waves
Toss the raft all night [Eb] and send you down on dry land.
It gets [Bb] okay
[F] to praise [Eb] the day
Believe [Bb] in stable skies [Ab] and sleep blue earth [Eb] beneath
But hear [Bb] his breath come whistling sometimes
[F]
[Bb]
[Dm] [Eb]
Tell [Gm] no [F] one what [Eb] you've seen
[F] [Bb]
[C] It's [Bb] so good to learn that from right here [Dm] the view goes on forever
And [Gm] you'll never want for comfort [Eb] and you'll never be alone
[Bb] See the sunset turning red.
Let [Dm] all be quiet in your head
[Gm] And look about
[Eb] All the stars are coming out
[Bb] They shine
[F] like steel [Eb] swords
Wish [Bb] me well
[Ab] Where [Eb] I go, but [Bb] when you see me when my change comes, [F] you'll know
