BmAG
I find the map and draw a straight line
BmAG
Over rivers, farms, and state lines
BmAG
The distance from me to where you'd be
BmAG
It's only finger-lengths that I see
BmAG
I touch the place where I'd find your face
BmAG
My fingers in creases of distant dark places

BmAG
I hang my coat up in the first bar
BmAG
There is no peace that I've felt so far
BmAG
The laughter penetrates my silence
BmAG
As drunken men find flaws in science

BmAG
Their words mostly noises
BmAG
Ghosts with just voices
BmAG
Your words in my memory
BmAG
Are like music to me

BmD
I'm miles from where you are,
AG
I lay down on the cold ground
BmD
I pray that something picks me up
ACadd9
And sets me down in your warm arms

BmAG
After I have travelled so far
BmAG
We'd set the fire to the third bar
BmAG
We'd share each other like an island
BmAG
Until exhausted, close our eyelids
BmAG
And dreaming pink wildfire
BmAG
The last place we left off
BmAG
Your soft skin is weeping
BmAG
A joy you can't keep it

BmD
I'm miles from where you are,
AG
I lay down on the cold ground
BmD
And I pray that something picks me up
ACadd9
and sets me down in your warm arms

BmD
I'm miles from where you are,
AG
I lay down on the cold ground
BmD
I pray that something picks me up
ACadd9
and sets me down in your warm arms
