[Verse 1]
GMany times, I seem to nCeed my peace of mGind
                          C               GDadd9add11
After girls and payphone fights, I'll be alone
I'Gve gotta hide from a Cman with serpent's eGyes
                     C                 GDadd9add11
In this house of candlelights, that I adore
GCause after dark, after I'm lCost in long Gago
                              C                 GDadd9add11
Stained glass will watch the shows of songs of praise
BGroken tiles run aloCng the wooden flGoors
           C                  GDadd9add11
Echoing my voice against the doors
[Chorus]
CHeDy, EmI cCould let it Dall fade aEmway
Cause in this pClace I've got a wanDdering mEmind
All I've gCot is this waDndering mGind
[Verse 2]
SGummer days, the smell of grCass under our fGeet
                          C               GDadd9add11
Under eaves our hearts do beat in common time
I'm cGlimbing trees with fucked up kCnees in a southern bGreeze
                   C                GDadd9add11
A subtle hum, a soliloquy from far away
GSailing boats, we glide through suCnlit quiet crGeeks
                         C                      GDadd9add11
Though all the boats may leak, we'll patch the holes
GTime loses meaning here, we'll nCever know the dGate
                      C             GDadd9add11
Future thoughts won't make us feel afraid
[Chorus]
CHeDy,  EmI cCould let it Dall fade aEmway
Cause in this pClace I've got a wanDdering mEmind
CAll I've got, all I've gDot is this
[Bridge]
N.C               C        G  D  
Ooh, people they always change
N.C                        C         G  D  
Ooh, brick and stone will forever remain
N.C                 C          G  D  
Ooh, my places they stay the same
Stay the sCame wDoah
[Chorus]
CHeDy,  EmI cCould let it Dall fade aEmway
Cause in this pClace I've got a wanDdering mEmind
CAll I've got, all I've gDot
CHeDy,  EmI cCould let it aDll fade aEmway
CCause in this place I've got a wanDdering miEmnd
All I've Cgot, all I've Dgot is this wandering mGind
