[E] [Bm] I don't wanna [A] hear a love song
I got [D] on this airplane [A] just to fly
And I know there's [E] life below [A] me, but
All you can [D] show me [A] is a prairie and a [D] sky
[A] I
[E] don't wanna [A] hear a sad story
Full [F#m] [D] of heartbreak and [A] desire
[E] Last time I felt like this
I was in the [D] wilderness [A] and the canyon was [D] on fire
[A] And [F#m] I stood on [B] a mountain
[D] In the night I watched it [A] burn
Watched [E] it burn, [A] I watched it burn
I would rock [D] my soul
In the bows of my [A] favorite hair
I would hold [E] my life [A] in saving grace
I would [D] walk all the way from Boulder [A] to Birmingham
If I thought I [E] could see your, see [A] your face
[E] Well you really got [A] me this time
[F#m] And the hardest part [D] is knowing I'll [A] survive
I've [E] come to listen for the sound
Of trucks as they [D] roll down [A] on that [D] flag
And [A] [F#m]
I pretend [B] that it's the ocean
[D] Coming down to wash me [A] clean
[E] Wash me clean, baby do [A] you know what I mean?
I would rock [D] my soul
In the bows [A] of my favorite hair
I would hold [E] my life in [A] saving grace
I would [D] walk all the way from [A] Boulder to Birmingham
If I [E] thought I could see your,
[A] see your face
I would rock [D] my soul
In the bows of my [A] favorite hair
I would [E] hold my life in [A] saving grace
I [D] would walk all the way from [A] Boulder to Birmingham
If I [E] thought I could see your, see [A] your face
If I [E] thought I could see your, see [A] your face
