Intro: G D F C
G D G C
Grey London morning, wet London streets
G D Em C
Rain on the window, wind in the trees
G D Em C
It's my time to write, it's your time to calL
G D F C D F C
There's something about distance that gets to us all
Dark clouds above me, little people below
All walk with a purpose with someplace to go
It's my place to paint my own selfish scene
On this cold lonely canvas, it's just the weather and me
G
B Em
And latitude
C G D G
Fold back the morning and bring on the night
Am G
There's an alien moon
A D
That hangs between darkness and light
B Em C G
Latitude between me and you
B Em
You're a straight line of distance
C G D
A cold strech of black across blue
F C
Latitude
G D F C G D F C
Cracks in the sidewalks, dogs on the run
An old poster reading "Give us your sons"
Window frames capture moments in time
But latitude captures the heart and the mind
