[Intro]

F# C# G# G#
[Verse 1]
F# C# G#
All these cities' secrets leech into the soil
F# C# G#
Where the river picks them up and drags them on
F# C# G#
If you lay back on it, let it float you home
F# C# G#
All the centuries drift from the bridges up above
[Chorus]
D#m C# G#
I was someone's daughter, I was somoone's son
F# C# G#
And the headlines don't call me by my name
D#m C# G#
Still the headlines don't call me by my name
F# C# G#
Someday I'll be running like a coyote
F# C# G#
Someday I'll be running like the wolves
F# C# G#
Wherever water guides me I will follow
F# C# G#
Oh someday we'll be free enough to grow
F# C# G#
Oh someday we'll be wise enough
[Verse 2]
F# C# G#
Swim out on the river banks searching in the mud
F# C# G#
While the city wakes itself to greet the sun
F# C# G#
Still I am not a hero I am only human
F# C# G#
I just jumped right after when they fell in
[Chorus]
D#m C# G#
I was someone's daughter, I was somoone's son
F# C# G#
And the headlines don't call me by my name
D#m C# G#
Still the headlines don't call me by my name
F# C# G#
Someday I'll be running like a coyote
F# C# G#
Someday I'll be running like the wolves
F# C# G#
Wherever water guides me I will follow
F# C# G#
Oh someday we'll be free enough to grow
F# C# G#
Oh someday we'll be wise enough
F# C# G#
Someday we'll be wise enough
