[Verse 1]D A D G
I grew up here now all of my life
Em A D G D
But I dreamed someday I'd go
D A D G
Where the blue-eyed girls and red guitars and
Em A D G D
The naked rivers flow
[Chorus]G
I'm not all I thought I'd be
F#m D
I always stayed around
G
I've been as far as Mercy and Grand
Em A7
Frozen to the ground
[Verse 2]D A D G
I can't stay here and I'm scared to leave
Em A D
Just kiss me once and then
D A D G
I'll go to hell, I might as well
Em A D G D
Be whistlin' down the wind
[Break] G D
The bus is at the corner
G D
The clock on the wall
G F#m
Broken down windmill
A
There's no wind at all
G D
I've yelled and I cursed
G D
If I stay here I'll rust
G Bm
I'm stuck like a shipwreck
A
Out here in the dust
D A D G Em A D D A D G Em A D G D
[Verse 3] D A D G
The sky is red and the world's on fire
Em A D
And the corn is taller than me
D A D G
The dog is tied to a wagon of rain
Em A D G D
And the road is as wet as the sea
[Chorus 2] G
And sometimes the music from a dance
F#m D
Will carry across the plains
G
And the places that I'm dreaming of
Em A7
Do they dream only of me?
[Verse 4] D A D G
There are places where they never sleep
Em A D
And the circus never ends
D A D G
So I will take the Marleybone coach
Em A D G D
And be whistling down the wind
D A D G
so I will take the Marleybone coach
Em A D G D
