[Intro]Bm A G (x2)[Verse]Bm A GI find the map and draw a straight lineBm A GOver rivers, farms, and state linesBm A GThe distance from me to where you'd beBm A GIt's only finger-lengths that I seeBm A GI touch the placeBm A Gwhere I'd find your faceBm A GMy fingers in creasesBm A Gof distant dark placesBm A GI hang my coat up in the first barBm A GThere is no peace that I've felt so farBm A GThe laughter penetrates my silenceBm A GAs drunken men find flaws in science[Bridge]Bm A GTheir words mostly noisesBm A GGhosts with just voicesBm A GYour words in my memoryBm A GAre like music to me[Chorus]Bm DI'm miles from where you are,A GI lay down on the cold groundBm DI pray that something picks me upA Cadd9And sets me down in your warm arms[Verse]Bm A GAfter I have travelled so farBm A GWe'd set the fire to the third barBm A GWe'd share each other like an islandBm A GUntil exhausted, close our eyelidsBm A GAnd dreaming pink wildfireBm A GThe last place we left offBm A GYour soft skin is weepingBm A GA joy you can't keep it[Chorus]Bm DI'm miles from where you are,A GI lay down on the cold groundBm DAnd I pray that something picks me upA Cadd9and sets me down in your warm armsBm DI'm miles from where you are,A GI lay down on the cold groundBm DAnd I pray that something picks me upA Cadd9and sets me down in your warm arms
