INTRO: G Am Em C G Am7 Em Fmaj7
G Am7
No one in sight for fifty miles,
Em C G Am Em C
Sleeping fields sigh as I glide across their spines.
G Am7
If I can just reach the crest of that hill
Em C G Am7 Em C
This whole day will tumble, out the night will spill.
G Am7
The sky as still as a spinning top,
Em C G Am Em C
Shooting stars drop like burning words from above.
G Am7
If I could just connect all these dots
Em C G Am7 Em Fmaj7
The truth would tumble like a Cynic vexed by love.
CHORUS:
G Am Bm Em7
And yet people keep saying I'm miles from my home,
Am G Am G
miles from my home.
BREAK: G Am Em Fmaj7
VERSE:
G Am7
I met you again in my sleep last night,
Em C G Am Em C
These are days of slow boats and false starts.
G Am7
Hearts remain under lock and key,
Em Fmaj7
And you will be the one to set them both free.
CHORUS:
G Am Bm Em7
And yet people keep saying I'm miles from my home,
Am G Am C
miles from my home.
BRIDGE:
D G
But that's where I want to be.
Am7 G
Out there searching,
Am7 G
Out here fumbling,
Am7 G
Out here waiting
Am7 G
For you and you for me.
BREAK: G Am Em C G Am7 Em Fmaj7
VERSE:
The moon hangs like a question mark,
pale as milk, bold as a promise.
When will you share these sights with us?
When will we hold you in our arms?
G Am Bm Em7
And the people we'll tell them we're miles from our home,
Am G Am G
miles from my home.
G Am Bm Em7
And the people we'll tell them we're miles from our home,
Am G Am G
miles from my home.
Am G Am G
miles from my home.
Am G Am G
miles from my home.
Am G Am G
miles from my home.
Am G Am G
miles from my home.
