[D]
Well, I found me a railroad and I took it for miles
At the pace of a snail toad or cricket time flies
And the path that I traveled was blue as her eyes
At the dock she'll be waiting for me
And I found me a sweetheart, I lost me one too
These things come in threes so I fear I'll lose you
When my passion burns red, oh I just end up blue
As I cast off from you out to sea
[Bm] [D]
If our love were an ocean, we might have both drowned
In a whirlpool romance we would pirouette down
How we'd rock side from side, always leagues from firm ground
We bled blue, it never healed clean
And if no man's an island, no woman's the sea
No shore stays silent bereft of her breeze
Yet when I sing for you, silence has its own key
And it floods every moment between
[Bm] I would've waited, [Em] you know
[B]
Where your tears never [D] flowed
When I'm right on [Em] your back
[B]
[Em] [F#] You'll go wherever [D] you go
[Bm] But [Em] now I'm [B] on my way back [Em] home
[F#m] I've never been there [D] before
[Bm] And the water [Em] displaced [B]
[Em] [B] rushes back to [D] the shore
As I stayed on that railroad every mile a bit blurred
I saw what I saw and I heard what I heard
It's ups and it's downs, we're all depressed and
Left behind, looked the same right ahead
[Bm] It was there that I found her, just past your [F#m] world's edge
[D] She shimmered across all the pain that I've shed
I thought she was you, I approached her [F#m] and said
[D] I've come a long way, can I sleep in your bed?
Don't [Em] say no, [E]
[Em] [G] but we can be [D] made for one
I can't ride on [Em] your back
[Bm] You'll go wherever [D] you go
[Bm] But [Em] now I'm [E] on my way back home
I've never [Bm] been there [D] before
And the current [Em] that sank [E] me
Rushes [Bm] back to [D] the shore
I would've waited, [Em] you know
[E] [Em] [E]
Where the western [D] wind blows
Where [Bm] I ride on [Em] your back
[F#m]
You'll go [Bm] wherever [D] you go
[Bm] But [Em] now I'm [E] on my way back [Bm] home
I've never been there [D] before
[Bm] And the water [Em]
[E] displaced rushes [Bm] back to [D] the shore
Back to see that what's more
