Am
               Am*
stay close at hand, you know
     F                C                Em    Am
the bar begins where rooted boundaries end
               Am*
stay pure and heart of gold
    F              C                  Em
the ocean breaks against the adverse wind

Am  Bb  G   -2x-

C
             Bb           Am     G#         C
i hear you crying you're only a lifetime away
             Bb       Am        G#
i feel you dying, relying, on what the people say

Am  Bb  G   -2x-

Am
              Am*
she lives in solitude
   F                C                 Em   Am
behind the rudeness of the work she spins
             Am*
he stalks oblivious
 F                  C              Em
pushing and holding in an adverse wind

C
             Bb           Am     G#        C
i hear you crying you're only a lifetime away
             Bb       Am        G#             C
i feel you dying, relying, on what the people say
             Bb           Am     G#
i hear you crying you're only a lifetime away
C            Bb       Am        G#             C
i feel you dying, relying, on what the people say...
