A majorA bear moved into the city,
     FF                    C majorC
and all of the work dried up.
         A minorAm                C majorC
Put it all in his pickup truck,
      FF               G MajorG
and drove down the mountain.
          C majorC           G MajorG        C majorC
And he scoured the classified ads
         FF                        C majorC
For a window with a view of the trees.

            A minorAm                  C majorC
Signed his name, got a set of keys,
          FF                G MajorG
and the empty light of a room.


                  A minorAm         FF
And he said, "I wonder if this is what
           C majorC
heaven is like "
              G MajorG                         A minorAm
"What if it means I'm more dead that alive "
               FF                       C majorC
"What would I be if I turned out the light,
         G MajorG        A minorAm   G MajorG C majorC FF A minorAm G MajorG C majorC G MajorG C majorC
before night... fell "

Bear walked while for groceries,
        FF                     C majorC
and everyone stared at the ground.
   A minorAm                        C majorC
Moving to the beat of the sound of the
   FF             G MajorG
voices of the engines.
           C majorC       G MajorG           C majorC
And the sidewalk tore at his feet,
        FF                  C majorC
and it hurt just a little more
     A minorAm                C majorC
To open and close the door
         FF             G MajorG
of the Bodega on the corner.

In the old days,

we would up and run.

Bear laid down on a park bench
      FF                       C majorC
and stared straight up at the sky,
    A minorAm                    C majorC
Waiting on the first starlight
         FF                G MajorG
in the space between the buildings.
          C majorC               G MajorG
And he stayed awake all night,
           FF            C majorC
with the cars and the people,
         A minorAm                 C majorC
And his fingers formed a steeple
   FF            G MajorG
pointed at the sky.

And he said, "I wonder if this is what
           C majorC

"What if it means I'm more dead that alive "
