[Intro]
N C
[Verse]
Am F C G
The streetlights beating on my face tonight
Am F C G
The wheels are burning down the road
Am F C
I'll drink these chemicals to keep me up
G Am F C G
If I fall asleep where will I go
Am F C G
The suns been up and gone a while now
Am F C G
It's hidden by these concrete oaks
Am F C G
The metals ringing in my ears again
Am F C
Like the pay phone that goes dead when I call home
[Chorus]
G Am F
So, take me back to the place
C G
Where the waters blue and green
Am F
Where the skyline meets the river
C G
That comes rushing through the trees
Am F C G
The wilderness has all of me it's waiting at my door
Am F
Take me back to the place
C G C C
Where the sidewalk was the shore
[Verse]
Am F C G
The radio ain't playing nothing
Am F C G
But songs of parties in LA
Am F C G
And if the music’s taught me one little thing
Am F C
It's that people never mean a word they say
[Chorus]
G Am F
So, take me back to the place
C G
Where the waters blue and green
Am F
Where the skyline meets the river
C G
That comes rushing through the trees
Am F C G
The wilderness has all of me it's waiting at my door
Am F
Take me back to the place
C G Am F
Where the sidewalk was the shore
[Solo]
| C G | Am F | C G |
[Verse]
Am C
A thousand miles from where my heart beats
F C G
It's still in my chest I hope
Am C
Like a family photograph that's faded over time
F G
It's hard see but I still know
[Chorus]
G Am F
So, take me back to the place
C G
Where the waters blue and green
Am F
Where the skyline meets the river
C G
That comes rushing through the trees
Am F C G
The wilderness has all of me it's waiting at my door
Am F
Take me back to the place
C G Am F
Where the sidewalk was the shore
[Solo]
