1  I find the map and draw a straight line
     A7                  G8          Bm9
2Over rivers, farms, and state lines
             A10                 G11       Bm12
3The distance from "A" to where you'd be
          A13                   G14    Bm15
4It's only finger lengths that I see

            A16 G17  Bm18
7I touch the place
                    A19 G20 Bm21
8Where I'd find your face
              A22   G23  Bm24
9My fingers in creases
                A25  G26  Bm27
10Of distant dark places

12
          A28              G29        Bm30
13I hang my coat up in the first bar
            A31                    G32     Bm33
14There is no peace that I've felt so far
             A34             G35      Bm36
15The laughter penetrates my silence
           A37                 G38      Bm39
16As drunken men find flaws in science

18
                   A40  G41  Bm42
19Their words mostly noises
                 A43  G44  Bm45
20Ghosts with just voices
                 A46   G47 Bm48
21Your words in my memory
               A49  G50  Bm51
22Are like music to me
23
24
               D52
25I'm miles from where you are,
 A53                G54             Bm55
26I, lay down on the cold ground I,
                      D56
27I pray that something picks me up
    A57                    Cadd958
28And, sets me down in your   warm arms

Bm59       A60               G61     Bm62
31   After I have traveled so far
             A63           G64        Bm65
32We'd set the fire to the third bar
                A66             G67     Bm68
33We'd share each other like an island
        A69                  G70      Bm71
34Until exhausted, close our eyelids
35
36
                  A72  G73   Bm74
37And dreaming pick up from
                  A75    G76  Bm77
38The last place we left off
                  A78   G79  Bm80
39Your soft skin is weeping
                A81    G82  Bm83
A84 joy you can't keep in

               D85
42I'm miles from where you are,
 A86                G87                 Bm88
43I, lay down on the cold ground And I,
                      D89              A90
44I pray that something picks me up and
                    Cadd991        Bm92
45Sets me down in your    warm arms
