[C] [Em] [Dm] [G]
[C] [Em] [Dm] [G]
[Cm] [D] Knowing [C] that your [Cm] door is always open and your [Dm] path is clear to walk.
[A] That makes me know that I can [F] leave my sleeping [Am] bag behind your couch.
[Dm] [G]
[C] [Em] It's knowing I'm not [Am] shackled by forgotten words and bonds.
And you'll explain [Dm] that I'm frightened of some light.
You keep showin' the back roads, the river of my memory.
You keep tellin' a tale [C] of my, tale of my, tale of my, tale of my, [Em] tale of my, tale of my, tale of [Gb] my, tale of my, tale of my.
[G]
[C] [Em] It's not plenty to surround me
[C] I want [Dm] some color now that's mine
Or something that somebody said
[C] [Dm] We're getting baby
Home [F] on the line
[C] It's doing number one
When it's hot [Dm] around inside
As you're moving on the road
You're still on the me
[A] [Dm] [C] Get on the [G] line
[C] Yes you are baby
Get on the [A] line
