E                   E/F#m
Long time comin' to take my hand away
E                   E/F#m
She says nothin' to take the pain away
E                   E/F#m
Somethin' about discussions in the cave
E                   E/F#m
Somethin' about a dream that can't be saved

B
              F#m
And all the easy faces
 E              F#m
Running out of happy places
 G            F#m E    B
Gone to the academy
               F#m
And plug each sonic lyre
         E       F#m
Into the navajo amplifier
    G     F#m      E
For us to hear and see

E                 E/F#m
Little star went rollin' up the hill
E                    E/F#m
Asked me to come and dance I said I will
E                      E/F#m
There are the days of preparation still
E                 E/F#m
Somethin's gonna happen on that hill

B
              F#m
And all the easy faces
 E              F#m
Running out of happy places
 G            F#m E    B
Gone to the academy
               F#m
And plug each sonic lyre
         E       F#m
Into the navajo amplifier
    G     F#m      E     B
For us to hear and see
             F#m
And all the summoned graces
 E            F#m
Manifest in different places
  G       F#m    E    B
There for us to see
            F#m
And little star keeps sayin'
 E            F#m
Indian was an angel prayin'
 G        F#m    E
Come and patiently
    G     F#m   E
For us also in we
     G       F#m      E
And save a place for me
