Lined up there forever by their buildings

Standing in the way of children's dreams

Lookin' for a way to be   complete

That's how I plan to say goodbye

Leavin' bells just as they were ringing

I'm not trying to make something die

Sent it down that street with the boxes on

working on solutions here and gone

Originating in the heart of something

Worth keeping in the soul when it gets hurt

As we keep on building roads of boxes 
C                          F 
To think inside of what we will 
C               E                 A D7 
With increasing distance from the foxes

From the wolves and whip-poor-wills

Mermaids and the galleons of horse

Crossing over onto waves of fortunes

To finally crash upon the shore

On the shore   On the shore

On the shore   On the shore

On the shore   On the shore 
C              F 
On the shore   On the shore

Rescued there by primative tribesman

Living in round triangles forevermore 
C     E          A       D7 
Never ever in a straight line

And always on the road to Heaven's door

Over the dry land between the castles

Or the herds of horses grazing on the clover
