G
Hey now little speedy head, the read on the speedmeter says
Dsus2
you have to go the task in the city
      Dm
Where people drown and people serve,
    D       
Dsus2
Don't be shy, your just deserve is only just light years to go.

Em
Me, my thoughts are flower strewn, ocean storm, bayberry moon.
D
I have got to leave to find my way
Em
Watch the road and memorize this life that pass before my eyes,
 D
   nothing is going my way

   G
The ocean is the rivers goal, a need to leave the water knows.
      Dsus2
We're closer now than light years to go.

Em
I have got to find the river, bergamot and vetiver
D
 Run through my head and fall away.
Em
Leave the road and memorize this life that pass before my eyes,
D
  nothing is going my way.


REPEAT INTRO RIFF

[Melodica Riff over next verse]

        G
There's no one left to take the lead, but I tell you and you can see
          Dsus2
We're closer now and light years to go
 G
Pick up here and chase the ride.  The river empties to the tide;
Dsus2
Fall into the ocean.

    Em
The river to the ocean goes, a fortune for the undertow.
D
None of this is going my way.
Em
There is nothing left to throw of ginger, lemon, indigo,
D
 Coriander stem and rose of hay.
   Em
Strength and courage overrides these privileged and weary eyes of
D
River poet search naivete.
Em
Pick up here and chase the ride, the river empties to the tide.
D
All of this is coming your way.
