Intro
Fm C#
G# C#/G#
She went from table manners to tunnel vision to premature farewells
G#
With the restlessness reserved for those who believe in themselves
C#/G#
She thought the world was hers so she made sure it bent beneath her will
G#
She was as new and as ancient as the solar paneled hills
A#m C#/G#
She was certain she could take this town by storm
A#m C#/G# D#
The wonder of sound and light seeking a form
G# C#/G# A#m C#/G#
But somewhere along the way the dots did not all connect the promise became regret
G# C#/G# A#m C#/G#
But somewhere along the way the dreams and the circumstance continue their tortured dance
D# Fm
Somewhere along the way

Fm C#
G#
She was my lullaby, personified
C#/G#
My vision in the mist
G#
But her contacts were all promoters and westside therapists
C#/G#
The 5 ams, the worried friends, the parting of her lips
G#
But I needed to witness someone wrestle with What it means to just exist
A#m C#/G#
How her only plan in life was getting lost
A#m C#/G# D#
How she took me to the edge and made me watch
G# C#/G# A#m
But somewhere along the way the running had lost its fun
C#/G#
It Happens to everyone
G# C#/G#
somewhere along the way
A#m C#/G#
Her trail became to obscure but that was her signature
D#
She would talk about letting go
A#m Fm G#
I guess I didn’t understand giving over to the current
C#/G#
That were there since time began
D# A#m
But a long drive from el Paso to the pacific ocean cliffs
Fm G# C#/G#
I finally felt connected to the continental drift
G# C#/G# A#m
Somewhere along the way I started to smile again
C#/G#
I don’t remember when
G# C#/G# A#m
Somewhere along the way Things will work out just fine
C#/G#
You will see its true this time
G# C#/G# A#m C#/G#
(over and over)
G# C#/G# A#m C#/G#
But somewhere along the way
