Verse 1:
     D6D6     N.C.
Well the girl in the forest
N.C.              E minor 7Em7
Reached out to ease my worried mind
G+G        G6G6   A major 6A6       D6D6
Stopped me from falling into a downward spiral
   D6D6 N.C.               E minor 7Em7
I was worn by the city until I finally let go
G+G      G6G6    A major 6A6        D6D6
Drifted out to the Sierras on an empty road

Bridge 1:
       E minor 7Em7
And careless love
       D6D6
Won't get you far
     E minor 7Em7
I found a book of John Muir's
G+G   A augmentedA     D6D6
In an abandoned car


Verse 2:
       D6D6    N.C.
Mmm well the world was spinning so fast
N.C.      E minor 7Em7
Nobody took the time
      G+G      G6G6   A major 6A6
It was the girl in the forest
       Riff 1
Who opened my eyes


Bridge 2:
G6G6         A major 6A6        Riff1
What part of nature can you honestly say
   G6G6       A major 6A6     B minorBm     G5G5  F#F#  E minorEm
Is beyond your explanations for short term gain
  F#F#       B minorBm      A augmentedA  A augmentedA  G5G5 F#5F#5
Something's got to change before everything's


Verse 3:
E5E5  D6D6    N.C.       E minor 7Em7
Gonna disappear right before our eyes
    G6G6       A major 6A6         D MajorD
And we finally face ourselves alone in the forest
A augmentedA   G+G    D MajorD   A augmentedA    G+G     D6D6  E minor 7Em7   D6D6
Where so much rides on which path we decide oh, mmm
