They were[C] hiding behind hay bales,

They were[F] planting in the[C] full moon

They had[C] given[C/B] all they[Am7] had

For[Am7/G]something[F] new [G]

But the[C] light of day was on them,

They could[F] see the thrashers[C] coming

And the[C] water[C/B] shone

Like[Am7] diamonds[Am7/G] in the[F] dew. [G]

[F]And I was just[G] getting up,

Hit the[C] road before it's[F] light

[F]Trying to catch an[G] hour on the[C] sun

When I[F] saw those thrashers[G] rolling by,

Looking[C] more than[C/B] two lanes[Am7] wide

I was[Dm7] feelin'like my day had just be[G]gun.

Where the[C] eagle glides descending

There's an[F] ancient river[C] bending

Down the[C] timeless[C/B] gorge of[Am7] changes [Am7/G]

Where[F] sleeplessness[G] awaits

I[C] searched out my companions,

Who were[F] lost in crystal[C] canyons

When the[C] aimless[C/B] blade of[Am7] science

[Am7/G]Slashed the[F] pearly[G] gates.

[F]It was then I knew I'd[G] had enough,

Burned my[C] credit card for[F] fuel

[F]Headed out to where the[G] pavement turns to[C] sand

With a[F] one-way ticket to the[G] land of truth

And my[C] suitcase[C/B] in my[Am7] hand [Am7/G]

How I[Dm7] lost my friends I still don't under[G]stand.

[C]They had the best selection,

They were[F] poisoned with pro[C]tection

There was[C] nothing [C/B]that they[Am7] needed, [Am7/G]

[F]Nothing left to[G] find

They were[C] lost in rock formations

Or be[F]came park bench mu[C]tations

On the[C] sidewalks and[C/B] in the[Am7] stations [Am7/G]

They were[F] waiting,[G] waiting.

[F]So I got bored and[G] left them there,

They were[C] just deadweight to[F] me

[F]Better down the[G] road without that[C] load

[F]Brings back the time when I[G] was eight or nine

I was[C] watchin' my[C/B] mama's[Am7] T.V.,[Am7/G]

It was that[Dm7] great Grand Canyon rescue epi[G]sode.

Where the[C] vulture glides descending

On an[F] asphalt highway[C] bending

Thru lib[C]raries[C/B] and mu[Am7]seums, [Am7/G]

[F]Galaxies and[G] stars

Down the[C] windy halls of friendship

To the[F] rose clipped by the[C] bullwhip

The[C] motel of[C/B] lost com[Am7]panions[Am7/G]

Waits with[F] heated pool and[G] bar.

[F]But me I'm not[G] stopping there,

Got my[C] own row left to[F] hoe

[F]Just another[G] line in the field of[C] time

[F]When the thrashers comes, I'll be[G] stuck in the sun

Like the[C] dinosaurs[C/B] in[Am7] shrines [Am7/G]

But I'll[Dm7] know the time has come

To give what's[G] mine.
