[Verse 1]
G                              C
I'm coming back home for the winter
     G                                C
And the border patrol said I should stick there for a while
Em                           G                  C
It's got my mind in a flood and the light gets dimmer
                  G   D C
As the world get cold.....
    G                                D       C
So now I'm back in my room, but it looks different
      G                                         D      C
My sister's painted the walls, and nothing's in it any more
Em                       G           C
...But this is the place I found my spirit
               G  D C
So I know I'm home....

[Chorus]
       Em                      G                 C
'Cause I came to this world as the child of the dreamgiver
 Em                       G                  C
Trying to work it all out on the way to the moon
     Em                    G                   Am     C
And time wants me around, give my word to the grave diggers
                    G   D C
I'm just passing through....

[Verse 2]
 G                                              C
Sometimes I wish that I lived in the middle of nowhere
 G                     D     C
With a couple of dogs and a ranch on a farm
 Em                     G                C
And I don't even like farming or early mornings
                G   D C
It just sounds calm....
G                         D        C
And I'd marry that girl I met in Texas
 G                            D             C
Then my Grandma could hang 'round for the wedding
 Em                                 G          C
And now it's starting to sound like a better ending
               G   D C
And that hits hard....

[Chorus]
Em                                   G            C
'Cause I came to this world as the child of the dreamgiver
Em                         G                 C
Trying to work it all out on the way to the moon
Em                         G                    Am    C
And time wants me around, give my word to the grave digger
                    G   D C
I'm just passing through...

[Bridge]
C                  Em   G C
I'm just passing through....
Em   G   C
Ooh ooh ooh
C                   Em  G  C
I'm just passing through....
Em   G   C
Ooh ooh ooh

[Bridge]
Em                                      C
There's a million tangents I've been twisting
Em                                        C
They always lead to regret this reminiscence in the end
Em                               C
Some days my mind feels like a prison
                    G  D C
It just needs some sun....
                     C              Am
So I walk 'til the city meets the country
 G                                   C
'Til I'm the only one left in the world
 Em                         G                 C
And then I'll write a few songs that just go nowhere
       G     D C
Like this one

[Chorus]
 Em                         G                     C
'Cause I came to this world as the child of the dreamgiver
Em                         G                 C
Trying to work it all out on the way to the moon
     Em                    G                    Am    C
And time wants me around, give my word to the grave diggers
                     G   D C
I'm just passing through....

[Outro]
                    G   D C
I'm just passing through
                    G   D C
I'm just passing through
                    G
Just passing through...fade out
