[Verse 1]
G*
My mother told me of my first word
 
I asked for more and haven't stopped since
G Bm7 Cmaj7
I'll use each morsel of my body
G Bm7 Cmaj7
'Till all my bones shatter or splint
 
[Chorus]

You are here

[Verse 2]
G Bm7 Cmaj7
A spider's spinning in the corner
G Bm7 Cmaj7
The fire won't start if there's no flint
G Bm7 Cmaj7
When there's nothing behind, there's only forward
G Bm7 Cmaj7
So settle down for the next stint

[Verse 3]
G Bm7 Cmaj7
I've made amends with the old me
G Bm7 Cmaj7
And slit his throat with a receipt
G Bm7 Cmaj7
Of all the wrongs and the reasons
G Bm7 Cmaj7
Then sat him down on his plane seat
 
[Final Chorus]
C
You are here
Am
And so am I
Em
So come for a moment
G Gmaj7
And stay for a while
C
You are here
Am
And so am I
Em
So come for a moment
G Gmaj7
And stay for a while
