C  C  Dm  Dm  F F F F
     Oooh . . .

C  C  Dm  Dm  F F F F
Oooh . . .
[Verse 1]
C                Dm
Cleaning off the dust,

F
Drinking from the fountain,

C              Dm
Toiling in the blood,

F
Every dawn's a mountain,

        C                 Dm
And I'm climbing them without you,

Fmaj7
All roads ahead,

    C               Dm
And I still hope to find you,

   F                Am  Em F  F
If ever they get me home.
[Interlude] Am Em F F [Verse 2]
C                Dm
Where we used to walk,

    F
The pavement turned to meadow,

   C                Dm
My eyes still wanna fall,

       F
On you shining in the soft glow,

        C             Dm
Now I'm crashing into concrete,

F
Reaching up high,

    C           Dm
I'm trying to remember,

    F                     Am  G Em F  F
The color of the sky back home.
[Interlude] Am G Em F F [Chorus]
    G               F         F
I'm holding on, I'm holding up,

    Gadd11    G             Dm/F  F
I'm holding on, I'm holding up.
[Verse 3]
C                    Dm
Steam flows from the cup,

      F
She's making sure I'm warmer,

C                      Dm
And though I'm warming up,

F
I can't shake the shivеr,

      C                 Dm
I can spend the night besidе her,

F
Tracing your heat,

         C             Dm
Makes me coffee in the morning,

        F                 Am  G Em F  F
But she doesn't feel like home.
[Bridge]
        G# Gm      F
There's so much to see,

G# Gm      F
So much to see,

G# Gm    Cadd2
So much ahead of me.
[Verse 4]
C               Dm
Cleaning of the dust,

F
Breaking every mirror,

C                 Dm
All I've known to love,

F
Isn't getting nearer,

        C             Dm
And I'm older than my mother,

         F
When she gave me the day,

      C              Dm
And I might be going nowhere,

      F                    Am  G Em F  F
But I can't lift the veil alone.  Oooh . .
[Outro]
Am  G Em F  F
Oooh . . .
