[Verse 1]
He said I get a Amdollar a day to watch all the cars
Of the Grich come down for the beach and the bars
Their disFtracted faces always looking Emaway
But DmI'm OK I just watch the sea
The Frise and fall like it's inside of Amme
And no two days the sameG  
[Chorus]
I Fam where I am, I'm Amnot so hard to Gfind
I Fdo what I can with Amwhat they leave beGhind
I'm Fwith who I'm with, I Amspeak with who is Gnear
FCome back, DmI am here
[Verse 2]
AmInto all the empty spaces Gleer a hundred thousand faces
FScream a hundred million voices Emif you let them come
DmBut I just feel the breath of wind that Fdries the sweat upon my skin
AmSlowly breathing out and breathing Gin
[Chorus]
And I Fam where I am, I'm Amnot so hard to Gfind
I Fdo what I can with Amwhat they leave beGhind
I'm Fwith who I'm with, I Amspeak with who is Gnear
FCome back, DmI am here
[Bridge]
And Dmeverybody wants to be somewhere else
FEverybody wants to be someone AmelseG  
It seems like Dmeverybody wants to be someone else
FEverybody wants to be somewherAme elseG  
The Dmwind blows the Fwater, patterns Amracing across the Gbay
And the Dmsand slides through your Ffingers and it's Amall made from the Gsame
For what you Dmtouch well that's what Fmakes you, is there beAmside you alGways
[Verse 3]
There are Ampeople that I'll never know from Gplaces still I'll never go
They Fplay their dramas out from scene to Emscene
But the Dminsects crawl through the blades of grass
The Fsummer storms they slowly pass
The Amcolours change in the arcing of the Gsun
[Chorus]
And I Fam where I am, I'm Amnot so hard to Gfind
I Fdo what I can with Amwhat they leave beGhind
I'm Fwith who I'm with, I Amspeak with who is Gnear
FCome back, I am Dmhere

[Verse 1]

He said I get a dollar a day to watch all the cars

Of the rich come down for the beach and the bars

F Em

Their distracted faces always looking away

But I'm OK I just watch the sea

F Am

The rise and fall like it's inside of me

And no two days the same

[Chorus]

F Am G

I am where I am, I'm not so hard to find

F Am G

I do what I can with what they leave behind

F Am G

I'm with who I'm with, I speak with who is near

F Dm

Come back, I am here

[Verse 2]

Am G

Into all the empty spaces leer a hundred thousand faces

F Em

Scream a hundred million voices if you let them come

Dm F

But I just feel the breath of wind that dries the sweat upon my skin

Am G

Slowly breathing out and breathing in

[Chorus]

F Am G

And I am where I am, I'm not so hard to find

F Am G

I do what I can with what they leave behind

F Am G

I'm with who I'm with, I speak with who is near

F Dm

Come back, I am here

[Bridge]

And everybody wants to be somewhere else

F Am G

Everybody wants to be someone else

It seems like everybody wants to be someone else

F Am G

Everybody wants to be somewhere else

Dm F Am G

The wind blows the water, patterns racing across the bay

Dm F Am G

And the sand slides through your fingers and it's all made from the same

Dm F Am G

For what you touch well that's what makes you, is there beside you always

[Verse 3]

Am G

There are people that I'll never know from places still I'll never go

F Em

They play their dramas out from scene to scene

But the insects crawl through the blades of grass

The summer storms they slowly pass

Am G

The colours change in the arcing of the sun

[Chorus]

F Am G

And I am where I am, I'm not so hard to find

F Am G

I do what I can with what they leave behind

F Am G

I'm with who I'm with, I speak with who is near

F Dm

Come back, I am here
