The Mountain Goats – Never Quite Free (Guitar)

         G                                      D
It's so good to learn that right outside your window

        Em                                   C
There's only friendly fields and open roads.

                 G                            D
And you'll sleep better when you think you've stepped back from the brink,

    Em                                    C
And found some peace inside yourself; lay down your heavy load.

           G
It gets alright

D               C
    To dream at night.

           G               F                  C
Believe in solid skies and slate blue earth below.

             G                 D
But when you see him - you'll know.

      G                                 D
It's okay to find the faith to saunter forward;

           Em                                         C
There's no fear of shadows spreading where you stand.

                   G                             D
And you'll breathe easier just knowing that the worst is all behind you,

        Em                                        C
And the waves that tossed the raft all night have set you on dry land.

         G
It gets okay

D                 C
    To praise the day.

           G                     F                  C
Believe in sheltering skies and stable earth beneath.

             G
But hear his breath come

            D
Through his teeth.

G    D  C
Walk by faith,

     Em     D           C
Tell no-one what you've seen.

        G                                      D
It's so good to learn that from right here the view goes on forever;

           Em 
And you'll never want for comfort,

           C
And you'll never be alone.

        G              
See the sunset turning red,

           D                
Let all be quiet in your head.

Em
    And look about:

        C
All the stars are coming out.

     G      D
They shine

           C
Like steel swords.

        G     F
Wish me well

           C
Where I go.

             G
But when you see me,

       D
You'll know.
