[Intro] G9 Bm/F# G9 Bm/F# [Verse 1]
G         D/F#     C         Bm/D 
  Grab my knee and   look at me

           G     D/F#  C       Bm/D G         D/F#
And try to tell me    I'll be home     soon

   C         Bm/D     G     D/F#   C Bm/D
Asleep in my bed and un--stoned

    B7                  Am7      Em7
I'm tired of me this way
[Chorus]
Em7
   I don't know what I've gotten into
But I'm glad it's now instead of sooner This desert heat has crowded me strong
                      Em   G     Em  C   Em G Em C
With a wish I had for win--ter
[Verse 2]
Em        G        D        C   
It's not as gentle    as it sounds

             Em     G  D        C
As though it sounded   yes-ter--day

       Em         G          D    C       Em       G  
When I    heard a leaf of my life hit the    ground

D  C             B7         Am7                  Em7
        And as a bottle cap flew from my finger
[Chorus]
Em7
   I don't know what I've gotten into
But I'm glad it's now instead of sooner This desert heat has crowded me strong
                      Em   G     Em  C   Em G Em C
With a wish I had for win--ter
[Instrumental] C D Am7 C G [Bridge]
               Am7                 C    G  Am7   C  G  Am7  C  G
..And the sands    blew in my eyes

Am7                    C           C          Am7  C  G
And I stood on the edge and looked down to see

    Am7                 C            G        Am7  C G       
The light of a new life,     shining up on me

C        G   D          Em7
Whoa,        whoa,   oh
[Chorus]
Em7
   I don't know what I've gotten into
But I'm glad it's now instead of sooner This desert heat has crowded me strong
                      Em   G     Em  C   Em G Em C
With a wish I had for win--ter
[Outro]
                           Em G  Em C  Em G
..With a wish that I had

       Em     C    Em   G  Em  C  Em G  Em C  Em G Em  C  
with a wish I      Had

    Em       G        Em   C   
The sand blew   in my eyes
