Dawes - Somewhere Along the Way
Capo 3rd
C/G:332010
Intro:
Em C
GShe went from table manners to tunnel vision to C/Gpremature farewells
With the restlessness reserved for those who bGelieve in themselves
She thought the world was hers so she made sure it C/Gbent beneath her will
She was as new and as ancient as the sGolar paneled hills
AmShe was certain she could take this town bC/Gy storm
AmThe wonder of sound and light seeking a fC/GormD  
But Gsomewhere along the C/Gway the dots did nAmot all connect the promise became C/Gregret
GBut somewhere along the C/Gway the dreams and the circuAmmstance continue their tortured C/Gdance
SoDmewhere along the wEmay
Em C
Em C
GShe was my lullaby, personified
C/GMy vision in the mist
But her contacts were all promoters and wGestside therapists
The 5 ams, the worried friends, C/Gthe parting of her lips
But I needed to witness someone wrestle with What Git means to just exist
AmHow her only plan in life wC/Gas getting lost
AmHow she took me to the edge and made me wC/GatchD  
But somGewhere along the waC/Gy the running had lost its Amfun
It Happens to everyonC/Ge
somGewhere along the wC/Gay 
Her trail became to Amobscure but that was her C/Gsignature
DShe would talk about letting go
I guess I diAmdn’t understand gEmiving over to thGe current
That were there C/Gsince time began
DBut a long drive from el Paso to the pAmacific ocean cliffs
EmI finally felt coGnnected to the continental C/Gdrift
SoGmewhere along C/Gthe way I started Amto smile again
I don’t C/Gremember when
SoGmewhere along the C/Gway Things will work oAmut just fine
You will see iC/Gts true this time
G(over and C/Gover)Am  C/G  
But sGomewhere along the C/Gway Am  C/G

She was my lullaby, personified
