[Bm] [F#m] [G]
[A] [D] They were hiding behind hay bales, [G] they were planning [D] in the full moon.
They had given [A]
all [Bm] they had [A] for something [G] new.
[A] [D] But the light of day was on them, [G] they could see the [D] thrashers coming.
And the water [Bm] shone like diamonds in the [G] dew.
[A] [G]
And I [A] was just getting up, [D] hit the road before [G] it's light.
Trying to [A] catch an hour on [D] the sun.
When [G] I saw those [A] thrashers rolling by, [D] looking more than [F#m] two [Bm] lanes wide.
[D] [Em] I was feeling like my day had just [A] begun.
[D] Where the eagle glides descending, [G] there's an ancient [Bm] river [D] bending.
Through the [A] timeless [Bm] gorge of [D] changes, [G] where sleeplessness [A] awaits.
[D] I searched out my companions, [G] who were lost in [D] crystal canyons.
When the [F#m] aimless [Bm] blade of science [G] slashed the pearly gates.
[A] [G] It was then that I knew [A] I'd had enough, [D] burned my credit card [G] for fuel.
Headed out to [A] where the pavement [D] turns to sand.
[G] With the one-way ticket [A] to the land of truth, [D] and my suitcase [F#m] in my [Bm] [D] hand.
[Em] How I lost my friends, I still don't [A] understand.
[D] They had the best selection, [F#m] they [G] were poisoned [D] with protection.
There was nothing [A] that [Bm] they needed, [D] [A] [G] nothing left [A] to find.
[D] They were lost in rock formations, [G] or became park [D] bench mutations.
On the [A] sidewalks and in [Bm] the stations, [D] [G] they were waiting, [A] waiting.
[G]
So I [A] got bored and left them there, [D] they were just dead weight [G] to me.
Better [A] down the road, without that [D]
load.
[G]
Brings back the [A] time when I was eight or nine, [D] I was watching my mama's [Bm] TV.
[D] [Em] It was that great Grand Canyon rescue [A] episode.
[D] Where the vulture glides descending, [G] on an asphalt [D] highway bending.
Through [A] libraries and [Bm] museums, [G]
galaxies [A] and stars.
[D] Down the windy halls of friendship, [A] [G] to the rose cliff by [Bm] the [D] bowl whip.
The motel [Em] of lost [Bm] [D] companions, waits [G] with heated pool and [A] bars.
[G]
But [A] me, I'm not stopping there, [D] got my own road left [G] to hoe.
Just another [A] line in the field [D] of time.
[A] [G] When the [A] thrasher comes, I'll be stuck in the [D] sun, like the [F#m] dinosaurs [Bm] in [D] shrines.
But [E] I'll [Em] know the time has come, to give [A] what's mine.
