As recorded by Laura Marling (From the 2013 Album ONCE I WAS AN EAGLE) [Intro] D [Chorus]
D
Hey there, new friend across the sea

D
If you figure things out, would you figure in me?

D
Wouldn't it be a thing

D
To live somewhere quietly where there's a breeze

D                                 Dm  D
And there's a reason for us to be
[Verse 1]
D
I look at people here in this city and wonder if they're lonely

D
Or like me they're not content to live as things are meant to be

D
When were you happy?

D                           Dm  D
And how long has that been?
[Verse 2]
D
Who speaks for them and then again

D                  
Who speaks for me?

D                        
My vote was never counted   

                                                          Dsus2  D                           
So who upon this earth knows what it is that I believe?

D                                                           
We're all looking for answers where no answers can be found

D                            
Or is that a concern of mine

D                       
Because I have the time

D                      
To question my ground?
[Chorus]
D                                    
Hey there, new friend across the sea

D                                                 
If you figure things out, would you figure in me?

D                                    
Hey there, new friend across the sea

D                                                  Dsus2  D
If you figure things out, would you figure in me?
[Verse 3]
D                           Dm9                    Dsus2          
I find the more I think the harder it is for me to breathe

D            Dsus2       
When were we happy?

    D    Dsus2              D     
And how long has that been?
[Outro] D Dsus2 D
