D                      G
I don't want to hear a love song 

Em            C                G
I got on this airplane just to fly 

    D
And I know there's life below me

                     Dsus4 D
But all that you can show  me 

       G                   (Gsus4 G *)
Is the prairie and the sky 

    D                          G
And I don't want to hear a sad story 

Em      C                G
Full of heartbreak and desire 

         D
The last time I felt like this 

                  Dsus4         G                 (Gsus4 G *)   
I was in the wilderness and the canyon was on fire 

    Em             A         C                             G
And I stood on the mountain, in the night and I watched it burn 

             D   D7             G
I watched it burn, I watched it burn. 

G               C                    G
I would rock my soul in the bosom of Abraham 

                D                  G
I would hold my life in his saving grace.

             C                           G
I would walk all the way from Boulder to Birmingham 

                     D   D7                G
If I thought I could see, I could see your face. 

D                       G
Well, you really got me this time 

        Em              C               G
And the hardest part is knowing I'll survive. 

               D
I have come to listen for the sound 

                           Dsus4
Of the trucks as they move down 

D      G     
Out on ninety five 

    Em                    A
And pretend that it's the ocean 

C                      G                 D    D7
coming down to wash me clean, to wash me clean 

                        G
Baby do you know what I mean 

G               C                    G
I would rock my soul in the bosom of Abraham 

                D                  G
I would hold my life in his saving grace.

             C                           G
I would walk all the way from Boulder to Birmingham 

                     D   D7                G
If I thought I could see, I could see your face. 

                     D   D7                G
If I thought I could see, I could see your face.
