[Intro]

[Verse]

C F Em

Slide like a spirit, through these same old roads

F Am G F

You've been haunting these hills since the morning you were born

C F Em

Now the cracks in the pavement, are the cracks in your heart

F Am G F

You go over the same old faults every time you walk to the bar

C F Em

Ain't you wet when you get there, whether rain or tears or sweat

F Am G F

and the wind shaking the panes, it's the same as in your chest

F C/G F/A C/G

yes, It's the same out there,

F C/G F/A C/G

as it is in here,

F C/G F/A C/G

yes, It's the same out there,

F C/G F/A C/G

as it is in here

[Verse 2]

C F Em

Why should it be different, should it be anything but that

F Am G F

should we open our mouths and spit out California sand

C F Em

No we sing what we're given, into a piece of shit P.A

F Am G F

We sing Grey Foggy Day, we sing No Change in Me

C F Em

Yeah but it's arm in arm in arm and ain't it loud enough to stun

F Am G F

Hearing them all heaving along into the one same song

F C/G F/A C/G

oh, is it the same out there,

F C/G F/A C/G

as it is down here?

F C/G F/A C/G

yes, It's the same out there,

as it is in here

pull me close and keep the cold night out

So you're near to me now

once a stranger to me

A G D

now you're the song in my mouth

Laladedahdah...

[Outro]

Slide like a spirit, out to the icy steps

G Bm A G

feel the night on your face, the mist on your lips

G Bm A G

and you hum the refrain, as you take the hill again
