F               Dm
I was lost till you were found

Dm               G
But I never knew how far down

      F
I was falling,

         Dm          F      G
before I reached the bottom

F              Dm
I was cold and you were fire

Dm               G
And I never knew how the pyre

         F
Could be burning,

       Dm          F         G
on the edge of the ice field

            F          G      F
And the now chilly California wind,

   F                G       F
is blowing down our bodies again

         Dm      Dm         Dm              F                 G
And were sinking deeper and deeper into the chilly California sand

      F          Dm     Dm             F
Oh, I know you belong inside my aching heart

    Dm               Dm          G         Dm
And can t you see my faded Levis bursting apart?

    Dm
And don t you hear me crying;

   F
Oh babe, don t go?

Dm
And don t you hear me screaming;

G
How was I to know? 

F                    F
I m in the middle of nowhere,

G                   F
near the end of the line

                        F
But there s a border to somewhere waiting,

G                        F
and there s a tankful of time

                  F              G                       F
Oh, give me just another moment, to see the light of the day,

                F                  G               F
and take me to another land where, I don t have to stay

Dm               G                F                 F
And I m going to need somebody to make me feel like you do

Dm           G                   F
And I will receive somebody with open arms, open eyes,

Dm                                                   G
Open up the sky and let the planet that I love shine through

Dm             G
For crying out loud,

           F
you know I love you

Dm             G
For crying out loud,

           F
you know I love you

Dm             G
For crying out loud,

           F    F   Dm Dm F G 
you know I love you

F                Dm
I was damned and you were saved,

Dm               G
and I never knew how enslaved,

      F
I was kneeling;

       Dm           F     G
in the chains of my master

F                 Dm
I could laugh but you could cry,

Dm               G
and I never knew just how high,

      F
I was flying;

         Dm         F      G
ah, with you right above me

            F          G      F
And the now chilly California wind,

   F                G       F
is blowing down our bodies again

         Dm      Dm         Dm              F                 G
And were sinking deeper and deeper into the chilly California sand

      F          Dm     Dm             F
Oh, I know you belong inside my aching heart

    Dm               Dm          G         Dm
And can t you see my faded Levis bursting apart?
