Intro: 

       Then play:  C     D     
                   C     D 
                   C  G  D 
                   
C                               
And so to be one to lie to the captain 
D 
Sure I'm coming back 
C 
But I walk along and meet up a tree line 
D 
Cover up at last 

Am                        G              D 
And they're raging at the beach for some light 
             G           C              D 
But like the birds I was given all this time 

C                                
And to stop believing in the returning 
D 
I went on 
C 
So vaguely I still hear the bands but not 
D 
What's going on 

Am                            G              D 
I guess they're raging at the beach for some light 
             G             C              D 
But like the birds they're forgiven every time 


Am                         D 
But then I know that I'm a stranger in this land 
      G                                C 
And I wake you up by speaking what you cannot understand, no 
Am                        D 
All I said was there were mountains in my way 
G                   
But they're slowly disappearing 
      C                             Am   
And I balance when I feel you to my skin 

D (let it ring out)                    C 
In times like these even travelers can win 

Break: C    D 
       C    D 

C 
To be high in trees when they walk 
D 
Just forth and back and out 
C 
And the vessel's gone and I will stay to 
D 
Figure this one out 

Am                          G             D 
I bet they're raging in the seas for some light 
             G             C              D 
And like all birds they're given all this time 

Am                                       D 
And now I hold on fall is greeting me to stay 
       G                               C 
And we slow dance in the kitchen and I dream the days away, oh 
Am                                       D         
And just like Lucinda's you are right on time 
          G 
There are louder cities somewhere 
       C                                     Am   
But I don't think I'll be back where ringing stays 

D (let it ring)                          C 
In a place like this I should never feel afraid 

Break: C    D 
       C    D 

(single strums) 

G   C    G 
Get around 
C       G        D 
This is handsome life 
G          C      G 
I guess my rhythm grew 
C          G      D 
Through my darker time, oh 

C                                   D 
I was not the killer I was one just setting sail 
C 
With the fear of sideway winds just turning 
D 
Downward with the hail 

  Am                    G              D 
Oh, I was raging in the field for some light 
             G           C                  D 
But like the birds I was forgiven with this time 

Break: C    D 
       C    D 

Am                                         D 
In this sunlight I just can't believe your face 
           G 
We're some laundry line believers 
           C 
We're just kids in many ways, oh 
Am                                       D 
And you smell like smoke and honey in my arms 
    G                                 C                                Am 
I'm somewhere in some falling and I'm learning of your language for to say 
D (let it ring)                         C 
In times like these I should never grow away 

Outro: C    D 
       C    D 
       G    C 
       end on D
