The heart is a bloom           Shoots  up  through the stony ground 
There's no room               No  space  to rent in this town 

              A     Bm   D    G          D                      A 
You're out of luck               And the reason that you had to care
The traffic is stuck             And you're not mo_ving anywhere
                  A         Bm      D    G               D              A
You thought you'd found   a friend           To take you out  of  this  place 
        A     Bm      D        G               D              A
Someone you   could  lend    a hand         In return   for   grace

You're on the road             But you've got   no  destination
              A    Bm   D    G            D                A
You're in the mud                  In the maze of her  imagina_tion
              A    Bm   D    G            D              A
You love this town                        Even if that   doesn't ring true
            A    Bm  D    G            D                  A
You've been all      over     And it's been   all   over you


                 A5     B5   D5    G5     D5              A5

F#m          G        D               A
Touch    me           Take me to that other  place
Teach    me           I know I'm not a hopeless case


A   Bm   D    G    D   A

Em              G                     D				A
See the world   in green and blue     See China right in front of you
See the canyons broken by cloud     See the tuna fleets clearing the sea out
See the Bedouin fires at night      See the oil fields at first light and
See the bird with a leaf in her mouth  after the flood all the colors came out


                    A5     B5   D5    G5     D5              A5

F#m          G        D               A
Touch    me           Take me to that other place
Reach            me           I know I'm not a hopeless case
