Intro: ^{A7sus4 D Dmi Asus4 Dsus4 D Dmi Asus4} (whistle)


^D Hey now little ^Dmi speedy head
The ^Asus4 read on the ^Dsus4 speedometer says
You ^D have to go the ^Dmi task in the ^Asus4 city
Where people drown and people serve
Don’t be shy your just deserve
Is only just light years to go

R: ^G Me my thoughts are ^A flowers strewn,
^D An ocean storm may ^Emi bury them
^G I have got to ^A leave to find my ^D way ^(Dsus4)
G Watch the road and ^A memorize
This ^D life that passed be ^Emi fore my eyes
And ^G nothing is ^A going my ^D way

^{D Dmi Asus4 Dsus4 D Dmi Asus4}

The ocean is the river’s goal
The need to leave the water knows
We’re closer now but light years to go

R:I have got to find the river
Bergamot and bed of rose
Run through my head and far away
Leave the road and memorize
This life that passed before my eyes
And nothing is going my way

^{D Dmi Asus4 Dsus4 D Dmi Asus4}

There’s no one left to take the lead
But I’ll tell you and you can see
We’re closer now and light years to go
Pick up here and chase the ride
River empties to the tide
Fall into the ocean


R:River to the ocean goes
A fortune for the undertow
None of this is going my way
There is nothing left to grow
But ginger, mint, and indigo
Coriander stem and rows of hay
Pick up here and chase the ride
The river empties to the tide
All of this is coming your way
