Mary Chapin Carpenter – Between Here And Gone (Guitar)

D               G                                  D/F#
Tonight the moon came up, it was nearly full

                  C                          D
Way down here on earth, I could feel its pull

                       G                     D/F#
The weight of gravity or just the lure of light

                C                                 D
Made me want to leave my only home tonight

G/B               C(add2)                                      D
Yeah I'm just wondering how we know where we belong

       G/B C                                      D
Is it in a  photograph or a dashboard poet's song?

     G/B       C                                                D
Will I have missed my chance to right some ancient wrong

                C                            D
Should I find myself between here and gone?

D               G                                  D/F#
Now I could grab my keys, peel out in my truck

                      C                              D
With every saint on board bringing me their luck

                   G                         D/F#
An' I could drive too fast like a midnight thief

                  C                                 D
As if there was a way to outrun the grief

G/B               C(add2)                                      D
Yes I'm just wondering how we know where we belong

 G/B  C                                   D
In a   song that's left behind, in a dream I couldn't wake from

G/B      C                                      D
Could I have felt the brush of a soul that's passing on

      C                            D
Somewhere in between here and gone

C                   G/B
Up above me, wayward angels

C                             D
A blur of wings and grace

C                           Bm7
One for courage, one for safety

C                    D
One for just in case

D               G                                  D/F#
I thought a light went out but now a candle shines

                 C                           D
I thought my tears wouldn't stop then I dried my eyes

         G                   D/F#
And after all of this, the truth that holds me here

                  C                                 D
Is that this emptiness is something not to fear

G/B               C(add2)                                      D
Yes I’ll keep wondering how we know where we belong

         G/B    C
After all the journeys made

                            D
And the journeys yet to come

             G/B      C                            D
When I feel like giving up instead of going on

G/B               C(add2)
Somewhere in between

            G/B      C(add2)                                     D
Yeah I am just wondering how we know where we belong

       G/B    C
Is it in the arc of the moon

                           Em7     D
Leaving shadows on the lawn

        G/B       C                              D
In the path of fireflies and a single bird at dawn

G/B       C
Singing in between here and gone
