Died in the woods youve been cornered by a natural desire

           F                                             C
You wanna hop along the with the giddy throng through life

C                       Em              F                      G
But how you did learn to steer when theyre grinding all you gears

Youve been talking for hours you say time will wash every tower to the sea

And now you got this worry in your heart

             F             C                    G
When I guess its only life its only natural

We all spent a little while going down the rabbit hole

                 Am                       C    
The things they taught you lining up to haunt you

                       G            F    Em
They got your back against the wall

        F                                         G
I called on you on the telephone wont you pick up the receiver

C                        G        F           C         
Ive been down the very road  youre walking now

C                    Em              F
It doesnt have to be so dark and lonesome

You use to be such a lion before you got into all this crying on my lab

C                       Em       F        G
Back when you thought I never get this far

F                        C                   G  
But did you think really I showed an opened door

 F             C                   G
But futures calling and I’m answer

     Am                                    C
The wheels in motion but I never drink your portion 

                      G         F    Em
And I know it breaks your heart

F                                             G
Open up your parachute something got to stop the free fall

Ive been down the  very road  youre walking now
