Verse 1:
                Am
He said I get a dollar a day to watch all the cars
       G
Of the rich ?come ??down for the ??beach and the bars
         F                            Em
Their distracted facesâ??always looking away
    Dm
But I'm OK I just watch the sea
    F                                 Am
The rise and fall like it's inside of me
                        G
And no two days the same

Chorus:
  F                  Am             G
I am where I am, I'm not so hard to find
  F                  Am                G
I do what I can with what they leave behind
    F                    Am                G
I'm with who I'm with, I speak with who is near
F          Am
Come back, I am here


Verse 2:
Am                        G
Into all the empty spaces leer a hundred thousand faces
F                               Em
Scream a hundred million voices if you let them come
Dm                                      C
But I just feel the breath of wind that dries the sweat upon my skin
Am                                 G
Slowly breathing out and breathing in


Chorus:
      F                  Am             G
And I am where I am, I'm not so hard to find
  F                  Am                G
I do what I can with what they leave behind
    F                    Am                G
I'm with who I'm with, I speak with who is near
F          Am
Come back, I am here


Bridge:
    Dm
And everybody wants to be somewhere else
F                             Am     G
Everybody wants to be someone else
              Dm
It seems like everybody wants to be someone else
F                             Am     G
Everybody wants to be somewhere else
    Dm             F               Am                G
The wind blows the water, patterns racing across the bay
        Dm                       F                Am                G
And the sand slides through your fingers and it's all made from the same
             Dm                     F                     Am         G
For what you touch well that's what makes you, is there beside you always


Verse 3:
          Am                               G
There are people that I'll never know from places still I'll never go
     F                                   Em
They play their dramas out from scene to scene
        Dm
But the insects crawl through the blades of grass
    F
The summer storms they slowly pass
    Am                                  G
The colours change in the arcing of the sun


Chorus:
      F                  Am             G
And I am where I am, I'm not so hard to find
  F                  Am                G
I do what I can with what they leave behind
    F                    Am                G
I'm with who I'm with, I speak with who is near
F               Am
Come back, I am here
