[Intro] C G F x 2 [Verse 1]
C   
   I feel a change in the weather,

                           G
   I feel a change in me,

                                F
   The days are getting shorter   and the birds begin to leave,

C
   Even me, yes, yes, y'all,

                                G
   Who has been so long alone,

                    F
   I'm headed home,   Headed home
C G F [Verse 2]
C
   The nights are getting colder now,

                              G
   The air is getting crisp,

                               F
   I first tasted the universe   on a night like this,

C
   A box of wine, an alibi,

                               G
   and the hunger in her eyes,

                               F
   In a place where the tree of good and evil still resides,   

C          G       F
   Still resides
[Chorus]
       C

C
   She said "show me what you got, babe,

                                 G
   I'm not like other girls",
Just give me your bad self
          F
   And a place for us to make a stand and I can move the world

C
   Lift the valley from the floor, honey,

                          G
   Litle town into the sky,

                                  F
   They'll say that it's a miracle and you'll know damn well they're right,

C       G                     F
   Damn well they're right

C
   When the oracle spoke to me she was like a roadside song, 

G                                     F
   Do unto others as you would have them do, 
Even if in turn they do you wrong,
C
   This town right here's my everything,

                                G
   Though I've been torn away, 

                              F
   It has my heart, It has my heart,

                                    C
   Be still my heart, My heart will stay, 

                                            G   F
   My heart will stay, My heart will stay,

   Get just a little bit higher,

                       Am
   Get a little tongue tied,

                         F
   Gonna try to find whatever ever ever made time,

   F
   That kind of immemorial,

   G
   That time before the fall,

   Am
   That time before the autumn

   F
   Really turned the corner

   F
   Drive east of Eden,

            G
   'Till we start to feel the west,

            Am
   You were never far from nowhere,

             F                       Am
   You could see it from the edge of town,

                       G
   Honey, baby, wonder how it feel now,

       Am                                G
   Somehow I can't believe that it could feel like before, but,

   And the hunger in your eyes,

G                                             F
   In a place where the tree of good and evil   still resides,
