Lhasa :
G 
we all have dreams of leaving
Em 
we all want to make a new start,
G 
go and pack a little suitcase
D

Am 
all those worries and those sorrows
Em 
we can just toss them away,
Am 
buy a coffee and a paper

Interlude 1

and those step on to a train.

Verse 5

But I've been too long wandering

limping around this town

with everything that's pulling me

Verse 6
is pulling me further down.
D 
Lhasa :
G 
Go make all your excuses,
Em 
go say all you goodbyes
G 
but take a look in the mirror
it's the hardest one you'll ever find.
Em 
Am 
all those worries and those sorrows
Em 
you can just toss them away.
Am 
go find a new tomorrow
and forget about your yesterdays.
D 
Am 
so go and pat your kids
Em 
and kiss your dog goodbye,
Am 
leave your keys on the nail

Verse 7
with the sadness that's in your eyes.
D 
G 
Stuart Staples :
Maybe tomorrow,
Em 
today looks like it's bringing rain
G 
and I'll leave everything in order
I don't want nothing standing
Em 
in my way
Am 
there are jobs that need tending
and the logs that are
Em 
waiting to stack
Am 
and I'll leave everything in order
I don't want nothing that's
going to hold me back
D
