Capo 4

C G Dm Am C G Am

I can see wind upon the rise, here under glass i can see

C G Dm Am C G Am

Outside, in formaldehyde, waiting to set myself free

Am C F Am

Up around the river bend, i was separated from you

Am C F Am

You became a citizen of a world held like a zoo

Am C F Am

One step through the airlock where the chemicals can't get through

Am C F Am

Up around the river bend, i was separated from you

C G Dm Am C G Am

Like the ocean drips from the sky, i sit here just waiting to be

C G Dm Am C G Am

I can see specimens in jars, waiting, waiting to be

Am C F Am

Up around the river bend, the specialists changed you

Am C F Am

You became a prisoner of a world kept like a zoo

C G Dm Am C G Am

Outside, real life - waiting for you and for me

C G Dm Am C G Am

Outside all our lives - awaiting the chance to be
