[Intro]
G D
[Verse]
D G
I don't want to hear a love song
Em C G
I got on this airplane just to fly
D
And I know there's life below me
Dsus4 D
But all that you can show me
G (Gsus4 G *)
Is the prairie and the sky
[Verse]
D G
And I don't want to hear a sad story
Em C G
Full of heartbreak and desire
D
The last time I felt like this
Dsus4 G (Gsus4 G *)
I was in the wilderness and the canyon was on fire
[Pre-Chorus]
Em A C G
And I stood on the mountain, in the night and I watched it burn
D D7 G
I watched it burn, I watched it burn.
[Chorus]
G C G
I would rock my soul in the bosom of Abraham
D G
I would hold my life in his saving grace.
C G
I would walk all the way from Boulder to Birmingham
D D7 G
If I thought I could see, I could see your face.
[Verse]
D G
Well, you really got me this time
Em C G
And the hardest part is knowing I'll survive.
D
I have come to listen for the sound
Dsus4
Of the trucks as they move down
D G
Out on ninety five
[Pre-Chorus]
Em A
And pretend that it's the ocean
C G D D7
coming down to wash me clean, to wash me clean
G
Baby do you know what I mean
[Chorus]
G C G
I would rock my soul in the bosom of Abraham
D G
I would hold my life in his saving grace.
C G
I would walk all the way from Boulder to Birmingham
D D7 G
If I thought I could see, I could see your face.
[Outro]
D D7 G
If I thought I could see, I could see your face.
