[Intro]

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