[Intro] Am C Am F x2 Am G F Am [Verse 1]
     C       Am               F            Am
To answer a question, it'll probably take more

             C      Am               F            Am
If you're already there, well, you probably don't know

      C            Am                       G
Well, we we're the people that we wanted to know

               F                      Am
And we're the places that we wanted to go

      C           Am          F          Am
It's hard to get hold of and hard to let go

         C          Am                 F          Am
Always something we look for from the day we were born

    C                Am                       G
Instead we're the people that we wanted to know

               F                        G
And we're the places that we wanted to go
[Chorus]
                 F                        G
Yeah, we're the places that we wanted to go

                 F                        Am
Yeah, we're the places that we wanted to go
[Instrumental] C Am F Am x2 [Verse 2]
         C        Am            F             Am
Always asking a question and I don't want to know

          C            Am              F          Am
Like the wind across strings that had finally let go

          C         Am                         G
And the people you love but you didn't quite know

              F                         Am
They're the places that you wanted to go

  C            Am               F          Am
Bark at the neighbors and then bark at the dog

  C           Am                   F            Am
Sniffling and whimpering for someone to know

    C            Am                         G
But we we're the people that we wanted to know

               F                        G
And we're the places that we wanted to go
[Chorus]
                 F                        G
Yeah, we're the places that we wanted to go

                 F                        C
Yeah, we're the places that we wanted to go
[Instrumental] G Am F G F G F G [Verse 3] N.C. It was not the intention, but we let it all go N.C. Well, it messed up the function and sure fucked up the flow
                                          G
I hardly have people that I needed to know

                  F                          Am
Cause you're the people that I wanted to know

            C         Am             F              Am
All this scrambling 'round, hunting high and then low

         C       Am              F            Am
Looking for the face, love, or somewhere to go

   C           Am                       G
I hardly have places that I needed to go

                   F                       G
Cause you're the places that I wanted to go
[Chorus]
                   F                        G
Yeah, you're the places that we wanted to go

                  F                       Am
Yeah, we're the places that we wanted to go
[Instrumental] C Am F Am C Am C Am C G F G F G [Outro]
             F                           Am
You're the people that we wanted to know

           C      Am  F       Am       C      Am   F
Shouldn't have to ask,  you shouldn't have to ask

      Am  C        Am       F
Cause we are your real place
