in D, so: this version with Capo on 2.\r\n\r\n\r\n[Verse 1]\r\n\r\n[tab][ch]C[/ch]\r\nThey were hiding behind hay bales,[/tab]\r\n[tab] [ch]F[/ch] [ch]C[/ch] \r\nThey were planting in the Full Moon,[/tab]\r\n[tab] [ch]C/B[/ch] [ch]Am7[/ch] [ch]F[/ch] [ch]G[/ch]\r\nThey had given all they had for something new,[/tab]\r\n[tab] [ch]C[/ch] \r\nBut the light of day was on them,[/tab]\r\n[tab] [ch]F[/ch] [ch]C[/ch]\r\nThey could see the thrasher coming,[/tab]\r\n[tab] [ch]C[/ch] [ch]C/B[/ch] [ch]Am7[/ch] [ch]F[/ch] [ch]G[/ch] \r\nAnd the water shone like diamonds in the dew.[/tab]\r\n\r\n[tab][ch]F[/ch] [ch]G[/ch]\r\nAnd I was just getting up,[/tab]\r\n[tab] [ch]C[/ch] [ch]F[/ch] \r\nTo hit the road before its light,[/tab]\r\n[tab] [ch]G[/ch] [ch]C[/ch] [ch]Cmaj7[/ch] [ch]Cmaj7[/ch] [ch]C[/ch] \r\ntrying to catch an hour on the sun,[/tab]\r\n[tab][ch]F[/ch] [ch]G[/ch] \r\nWhen I saw those thrashers rolling by,[/tab]\r\n[tab] [ch]C[/ch] [ch]C/B[/ch] [ch]Am7[/ch] [ch]Am/C[/ch]\r\nLooking more than two lanes wide,[/tab]\r\n[tab] [ch]Dm7[/ch] [ch]G[/ch]\r\nI was feeling like my day had just begun.[/tab]\r\n\r\n\r\n[Verse 2]\r\n\r\n[tab] [ch]C[/ch] \r\nWhere the eagles glide descending,[/tab]\r\n[tab] [ch]F[/ch] [ch]C[/ch] \r\nThere's an ancient river bending,[/tab]\r\n[tab] [ch]C[/ch] [ch]C/B[/ch] [ch]Am7[/ch] [ch]Am7/G[/ch] [ch]F[/ch] [ch]G[/ch]\r\nDown the timeless gorge of changes where sleeplessness awaits,[/tab]\r\n[tab] [ch]C[/ch]\r\nI searched out my companions,[/tab]\r\n[tab] [ch]F[/ch] [ch]C[/ch]\r\nwho were lost in crystal canyons,[/tab]\r\n[tab] [ch]C[/ch] [ch]C/B[/ch] [ch]Am7[/ch] [ch]Am7/G[/ch] [ch]F[/ch] [ch]G[/ch] \r\nWhen the aimless blade of science slashed the pearly gates,[/tab]\r\n\r\n[tab][ch]F[/ch] [ch]G[/ch] [ch]C[/ch] [ch]F[/ch] \r\nIt was then I knew I'd had enough, burned my credit card for fuel,[/tab]\r\n[tab][ch]F[/ch] [ch]G[/ch] [ch]C[/ch] [ch]Cmaj7[/ch] [ch]C[/ch]\r\nHeaded out to where the pavement turns to sand,[/tab]\r\n[tab] [ch]F[/ch] [ch]G[/ch] [ch]C[/ch] [ch]C/B[/ch] [ch]Am7[/ch] [ch]Am7/G[/ch] \r\nWith a one-way ticket to the land of truth and my suitcase in my hand.[/tab]\r\n[tab] [ch]Dm7[/ch] [ch]G[/ch]\r\nHow I lost my friends I still dont understand.[/tab]\r\n\r\n\r\n[Verse 3]\r\n\r\n[tab][ch]C[/ch]\r\nThey had the best selection,[/tab]\r\n[tab] [ch]F[/ch] [ch]C[/ch]\r\nThey were poisoned with protection,[/tab]\r\n[tab] [ch]C[/ch] [ch]C/B[/ch] [ch]Am7[/ch] [ch]Am7/G[/ch]\r\nThere was nothing that they needed, [/tab]\r\n[tab][ch]F[/ch] [ch]G[/ch] \r\nnothing left to find.[/tab]\r\n[tab] [ch]C[/ch]\r\nThey were lost in rock formations,[/tab]\r\n[tab] [ch]F[/ch] [ch]C[/ch] \r\nOr became park bench mutations,[/tab]\r\n[tab] [ch]C[/ch] [ch]C/B[/ch] [ch]Am7[/ch] [ch]Am7/G[/ch] [ch]F[/ch] [ch]G[/ch]\r\nOn the the sidewalks and in the stations, they were waiting, waiting.[/tab]\r\n\r\n[tab][ch]F[/ch] [ch]G[/ch]\r\nSo I got bored and left them there,[/tab]\r\n[tab] [ch]C[/ch] [ch]F[/ch]\r\nThey were just dead weight to me,[/tab]\r\n[tab][ch]F[/ch] [ch]G[/ch] [ch]C[/ch] [ch]Cmaj7[/ch] [ch]Cmaj7[/ch] [ch]C[/ch] \r\nBetter down the road without that load,[/tab]\r\n[tab][ch]F[/ch] [ch]G[/ch]\r\nBring's back the time I was eight or nine,[/tab]\r\n[tab] [ch]C[/ch] [ch]Am7[/ch] [ch]Am7/G[/ch] \r\nI was watching my Mama's TV,[/tab]\r\n[tab] [ch]Dm7[/ch] [ch]G[/ch] \r\nIt was that great Grand Canyon rescue episode.[/tab]\r\n[tab] [ch]C[/ch]\r\nWith the vulture glides descending,[/tab]\r\n[tab] [ch]F[/ch] [ch]C[/ch] \r\nOn an asphalt highway bending,[/tab]\r\n[tab] [ch]C[/ch] [ch]C/B[/ch] [ch]Am7[/ch] [ch]Am7/G[/ch] [ch]F[/ch] [ch]G[/ch] \r\nThrough libraries and museums, galaxies and stars.[/tab]\r\n\r\n\r\n[Verse 4]\r\n\r\n[tab] [ch]C[/ch]\r\nDown the windy halls of friendship,[/tab]\r\n[tab] [ch]F[/ch] [ch]C[/ch] \r\nTo the rose clipped by the bullwhip,[/tab]\r\n[tab] [ch]C[/ch] [ch]C/B[/ch] [ch]Am7[/ch] [ch]Am7/G[/ch] [ch]F[/ch] [ch]G[/ch] \r\nThe motel of lost companions waits with heated pool and bar.[/tab]\r\n[tab][ch]F[/ch] [ch]G[/ch]\r\nBut me, I'm not stopping there,[/tab]\r\n[tab] [ch]C[/ch] [ch]F[/ch] \r\nGot my own row left to hoe,[/tab]\r\n[tab][ch]F[/ch] [ch]G[/ch] [ch]C[/ch] [ch]Cmaj7[/ch]\r\nJust another line in the field of time.[/tab]\r\n\r\n[tab][ch]F[/ch] [ch]G[/ch] \r\nWhen the thrashers come I'll be stuck in the sun,[/tab]\r\n[tab] [ch]C[/ch] [ch]Am7[/ch] [ch]Am7/G[/ch] \r\nLike the dinosaurs in shrines,[/tab]\r\n[tab] [ch]Dm7[/ch] [ch]G[/ch]\r\nBut I'll know the time has come to give what's mine.[/tab]","plain_text":"Sounds in D, so: this version with Capo on 2.\n\n\n[Verse
