🎸 Chorus:
D MajorD
Hey there, new friend across the sea
D MajorD
If you figure things out, would you figure in me?
D MajorD
Wouldn't it be a thing
D MajorD
To live somewhere quietly where there's a breeze
D MajorD                 DmDm D MajorD
And there's a reason for us to be

🎸 Verse 1:
D MajorD
I look at people here in this city and wonder if they're lonely
D MajorD
Or like me they're not content to live as things are meant to be
D MajorD
When were you happy?
D MajorD              DmDm D MajorD
And how long has that been?


🎸 Verse 2:
D MajorD
Who speaks for them and then again
D MajorD
Who speaks for me?
D MajorD
My vote was never counted
                             Dsus2Dsus2 D MajorD
So who upon this earth knows what it is that I believe?
D MajorD
We're all looking for answers where no answers can be found
D MajorD
Or is that a concern of mine
D MajorD
Because I have the time
D MajorD
To question my ground?

🎸 Chorus:
D MajorD
Hey there, new friend across the sea
D MajorD
If you figure things out, would you figure in me?

Hey there, new friend across the sea

If you figure things out, would you figure in me?

I find the more I think the harder it is for me to breathe

And how long has that been?
