[Verse 1]
A
Why Can't we speak another language
                 C#m
one we all agree on
A
why when men look outside do they see houses
                                  C#m
instead of fields they grew from
A
we are constantly uprooted from them
                                   C#m
making us tiresome and fearful
A
can you get up right now
                       C#m
and endeavor freefall (off)
                       A
Caus'you can fall if you want to
     A
it's just a matter of how far
           C#m
you've treasured your home town
           C#m
you've forgotten where you are
                A
and it will stay with you
             A
til' your mind's been found
          C#m
and it has been found wondering around.
                E
Without a skipping rope
A trampoline
[Chorus]
G#m
A Crafty smoke
                                     C#m
they've made a simpler way to give up
           E
it's the simple ways
of getting payed
      G#m
the carelessness of lying awake
C#m
oh i wish I stayed
A
I wish I stayed
C#m
I wish I stayed
[Verse 2]
A
Patterns all arranged in my backround
                         C#m
It's pillars and posts keeping this country on form
A
letters were all sent with no addresses
                                C#m
so that people can't scuffer
C#m
always undercover
A
why do i always draw triangles instead of words
      C#m
it's paint so it serves
             A
Cus you see I don't own my clothes but i own my mind
             C#m
And it's not what you've lost 
           C#m
but it's what you'll find
                E
Without a skipping rope
A trampoline
[Chorus]
G#m
A Crafty smoke
                                     C#m

A

C#m

     A
It's just a matter of how far

You've treasured your home town
