Verse 1
F C                        Eb F     Bb       F        Eb                   
   Truckers on the highway,       I bet they dream of home.
   Children on the playground,    I bet they feel alone.
   Thinking of everything,        maybe even death.
   Redirect my focus,             every single breath. (transition lick)
   A head full of music,          but it all sounds the same.
   Nobody knows him,              but he knows all their names.

Section B
Eb                   F
Say something once, never say it again.
Bb                                            F
Say something kind, that’s when the soul strings start to bend.

Section C
Gm7            Am Bb             Dm      Eb  
Down the steps,   down the hall, out the door.
Gm7              Bb                       Dm         Eb                        
Watch her leave, hold my breath, while we lay on the floor

Verse progression jam 2x

Verse 2
Ideas come out and ideas float away…
been this way for years now, four years and some change.
Grab a pretty dress. We’ll head north and then head west.
It’s time to dream now. Hope for nothing but the best.
Either brilliant or completely insane.
Laughter flows freely from this heart, through these veins.

Section B chords
Your mind is running. It’s running fast.
Nothing here was really meant to last.

Section C chords
Down the steps, down the hall out the door.
Watch it leave, hold my breath,
while we lay on the floor.

Verse progression jam 4x

Bass solo in D

D                            G
Late night morning haze take my hand
A                                  D                     
through the trees up the stairs to the sand.
D                                 G
Stars start to slip and squander the calm.
A             G              D
Blue tarp, wild eyed puddle in my palm.

Jam over D G A…

Falling all over myself to retrace whats left.
A                       D                       E
Looking back at all the pieces is getting to my head.

Like a thousand tiny footprints buried in the sand…

Watch the water, pour it over my soul.

Let the waves take me out to sea, the tide will have what’s left of me.

Walking out on to a ledge where nobody else could see.
A                             D                               E
Each choice is leading to the moment, and a chance to let our steps decide the way.
A                          D                     E
