Intro
Am F
C F/C
She went from table manners to tunnel vision to premature farewells
C
With the restlessness reserved for those who believe in themselves
F/C
She thought the world was hers so she made sure it bent beneath her will
C
She was as new and as ancient as the solar paneled hills
Dm F/C
She was certain she could take this town by storm
Dm F/C G
The wonder of sound and light seeking a form
C F/C Dm F/C
But somewhere along the way the dots did not all connect the promise became regret
C F/C Dm F/C
But somewhere along the way the dreams and the circumstance continue their tortured dance
G Am
Somewhere along the way
Am F
Am F
C
She was my lullaby, personified
F/C
My vision in the mist
C
But her contacts were all promoters and westside therapists
F/C
The 5 ams, the worried friends, the parting of her lips
C
But I needed to witness someone wrestle with What it means to just exist
Dm F/C
How her only plan in life was getting lost
Dm F/C G
How she took me to the edge and made me watch
C F/C Dm
But somewhere along the way the running had lost its fun
F/C
It Happens to everyone
C F/C
somewhere along the way
Dm F/C
Her trail became to obscure but that was her signature
G
She would talk about letting go
Dm Am C
I guess I didn’t understand giving over to the current
F/C
That were there since time began
G Dm
But a long drive from el Paso to the pacific ocean cliffs
Am C F/C
I finally felt connected to the continental drift
C F/C Dm
Somewhere along the way I started to smile again
F/C
I don’t remember when
C F/C Dm
Somewhere along the way Things will work out just fine
F/C
You will see its true this time
C F/C Dm F/C
(over and over)
C F/C Dm F/C
But somewhere along the way
