D

Verse 1:
        G           D           G          D
If you find yourself out in the Bible Belt  
         G               D
In some twilit, lonesome town
            G              D
And there's no one else around
       G                 D
Going nowhere in particular
             G                      D
Like some strange and ancient wild bird
     Bm   G         D
Well
as you were

Verse 2:
           G            D
And if you find yourself.
     G            D
In a motel mirror  
    G              D
All wet with tears  
          G               D
And your make-up smeared black
        G                         D
And you don't feel quite as beautiful
      G                   D
Nor lovestruck, nor wonderful
Bm   G         D  G
       As you were.
Bm      G        D
    As you were, once
Chorus:
      G                                  D
Well, time takes its toll, Heaven knows why
     G                                   D
And I know all that you loved passed you by
    Bm         G
But don't  cry, my child
D
  Life on Earth takes a little while
        Bm                   G        D
And in death you will learn how to fly.
      Bm                 G            D
First life on Earth may take some time.
        Bm             G        D
And you can't avoid a void so wide
Bm    G     D
So   just smile

Bridge:

La-la-la-la-la

Verse 3:
        G          D
And if you get lost.
            G         D
Go looking for a cross.
        G                   D
That's hauntin' some highway.
        G                 D
Pinned down by some skyway.
              G   D
Listen to it talk  
          G                   D
Say, "Hey, you going my way "  
          G        D
I am just passing by
             G       D
Through that by-and-by
Bm           G              D  G
   Going nowhere in particular  
Bm             G                      D
   Like some strange and ancient wild bird
G
Lord
