G 
Am 
G 
It doesn't bear to think about
Am 
It may be better we found out
C 
But I'd just as soon have
G 
died in your arms
Singing Swedish cowboy songs
Am 
Honey, but it won't be long
C 
D 
A little time away would do no harm
Am 
I was thinkin' may
C 
G 
be I'd get sober
Am 
C 
Take a trip up north,
D 
embrace the cold
C 
G 
Lean into the loneliness,
F 
Em 
solitude, the emptiness
Am 
C 
This living young is getting old
D 
G 
Waiting for a morning train
Am 
Of my belongings in the rain
C 
Trying to leave behind
G 
C 
the pain and fear
G 
I heard about a working ship
Am 
Down by the Gibraltar Strip
C 
I think I could finally disappear
D 
Am 
C 
Maybe feel the rushes
G 
starting over
Am 
C 
Without heaven or mind
D 
G 
D 
to melt me down
C 
G 
Baby is a different name
F 
Em 
Still changing, still the same
Am

Let you know when I
D 
come back in town
C 
D 
C 
D 
There's one life over the skin
On tethered thrones in the wind
C 
And God know it,
D 
the reason that I
C 
Wouldn't know where to begin
D 
Where would I hope to be found?
No such thing as holy ground
C 
D 
C 
D 
Just learned to gravitate on the sound
G 
Look up at the moon and stars
Am 
Maybe I should go to Mars
C 
G 
Find another lonely spinning stone
Or maybe join a whaling ship
Am 
Up around the Bering Strip
C 
D 
Leave behind everything I've known
Am 
C 
G 
Or maybe I'll get sober
Am 
Take a trip up north,
C 
D 
embrace the cold
C 
G 
Lean into the loneliness,
F 
Em 
solitude, the emptiness
Am

C 
he's getting old

C 
D 
And I want to see you cry
You
