INTRO

A G D A 2x

VERSE 1

day break on the city streets from the corner of her eye
pass the man who holds the box he’ll try to get inside
faces look back at me from their places on the wall
above the girl who held the shining looking glass

A G D A 2x

VERSE 2

she said all faces in here, have an undercoat of blue
if you look real close with this glass of mine
you can pick out every hue
I took the glass from her hand and held it to the sky
I took one glimpse, I slipped and fell
into the other side

CHORUS

sometimes I can’t see how far we’ve come
sometimes I feel like me body’s gone numb
sometimes I can’t see how far we’ve come
but I step back, and I look again
and my chains come undone

JAM 1 (short)

A G D A Play progression 4x, fast hits on G,D

VERSE 3

back out on the sidewalk now crashing through the night
feel first breath of air bringing in the sun
on the bench ahead a man sat, playing national guitar
I didn’t recognize the tune but I dropped change in his jar

PRE-CHORUS BRIDGE

the first notes to hit my ears didn’t sound quite right
but I let the sound wash over me
and it got me through the night

CHORUS 1x

JAM 2 (LONGER)

A G D A Play progression 8x, fast hits on G,D

(Play progression 8x or as many as you wish)

BRIDGE (TAB below)

step inside take a look at the tapestry untied
set loose all the details that occupy your mind
can you [G/B]see a picture [G/B]that is coming into view
the journey started long ago, now see the story through

see, how far we’ve come
feel, feel, feel what has begun
we can be, be, be headed towards the sun
if we free ourselves from these chains of inspection

JAM on A till end
