Intro:  D      Dm     A7sus4   Dsus

        D      Dm     A7sus4



 D                Dm           A7sus4              Dsus

Hey now little speedy head the read on the speedometer says

    D             Dm          A7sus4

you have to go the task in the city

    D                 Dm

Where people drown and people serve

A7sus4               Dsus           D        Dm          A7sus4

Don't be shy, your just deserve is only just light years to go



  G                     A              D                   Em

Me my thoughts are flowers strewn, an ocean storm may bury them

  G             A              D    (Dsus)

I have got to leave to find my way

  G                   A            D                   Em

Watch the road and memorize this life that passed before my eyes

    G          A         D

and nothing is going my way



     D              Dm            A7sus4               Dsus

The ocean is the river's goal, the need to leave the water knows

     D              Dm            A7sus4

We're closer now, but light years to go



   G           A                D            Em

I have got to find the river, bergamot and bed of rose

  G            A            D

Run through my head and far away

  G               A              D               Em

Leave the road and memorize this life that passed before my eyes

  G            A        D

and nothing is going my way

There's no one left to take the lead

But I'll tell you and you can see

We're closer now and light years to go



    (repeat chorus chords for these last 4 verses)



Pick up here and chase the ride

River empties to the tide, fall into the ocean

River to the ocean goes a fortune for the undertow

None of this is going my way



There is nothing left to grow

but Ginger, mint and indigo

Coriander stem and rows of hay



Strength and courage overrides

The privileged and weary eyes

River poets search naivete



Pick up here and chase the ride

The river empties to the tide

All of this is coming your way
