Intro:

G                                               C/G
She went from table manners to tunnel vision to premature farewells
                                              G
With the restlessness reserved for those who believe in themselves
                                                  C/G
She thought the world was hers so she made sure it bent beneath her will
                                      G
She was as new and as ancient as the solar paneled hills
Am                                        C/G
She was certain she could take this town by storm
Am                                       C/G       D
The wonder of sound and light seeking a form


   G                   C/G                Am                               C/G
But somewhere along the way the dots did not all connect the promise became regret
G                       C/G                         Am                             C/G
But somewhere along the way the dreams and the circumstance continue their tortured dance
  D                  Em
Somewhere along the way

G
She was my lullaby, personified
C/G
My vision in the mist
                                         G
But her contacts were all promoters and westside therapists
                                C/G
The 5 ams, the worried friends, the parting of her lips
                                                 G
But I needed to witness someone wrestle with What it means to just exist
Am                         C/G
How her only plan in life was getting lost
Am                                       C/G      D
How she took me to the edge and made me watch


       G                  C/G                        Am
But somewhere along the way the running had lost its fun
                     C/G
It Happens to everyone
   G                 C/G
somewhere along the way
                    Am                       C/G
Her trail became to obscure but that was her signature


D
She would talk about letting go
            Am               Em              G
I guess I didn’t understand giving over to the current
               C/G
That were there since time began
D                                     Am
But a long drive from el Paso to the pacific ocean cliffs
Em               G                         C/G
I finally felt connected to the continental drift

  G            C/G                Am
Somewhere along the way I started to smile again
        C/G
I don’t remember when
  G                 C/G                   Am
Somewhere along the way Things will work out just fine
              C/G
You will see its true this time


G        C/G         Am       C/G
(over and over)

     G                  C/G         Am             C/G
But somewhere along the way
