Intro:
Em C
G C/G
She went from table manners to tunnel vision to premature farewells
G
With the restlessness reserved for those who believe in themselves

She thought the world was hers so she made sure it bent beneath her will
G
She was as new and as ancient as the solar paneled hills
Am C/G
She was certain she could take this town by storm
Am C/G D
The wonder of sound and light seeking a form
G C/G Am C/G
But somewhere along the way the dots did not all connect the promise became regret
G C/G Am C/G
But somewhere along the way the dreams and the circumstance continue their tortured dance
D Em
Somewhere along the way

Em C
G
She was my lullaby, personified
C/G
My vision in the mist
G
But her contacts were all promoters and westside therapists

The 5 ams, the worried friends, the parting of her lips
G
But I needed to witness someone wrestle with What it means to just exist
Am C/G
How her only plan in life was getting lost
Am C/G D
How she took me to the edge and made me watch
G C/G Am
But somewhere along the way the running had lost its fun

It Happens to everyone

somewhere along the way
Am C/G
Her trail became to obscure but that was her signature

That were there since time began
D Am
But a long drive from el Paso to the pacific ocean cliffs
Em G C/G
I finally felt connected to the continental drift

Somewhere along the way I started to smile again
C/G
I don’t remember when
G C/G Am
Somewhere along the way Things will work out just fine

You will see its true this time
G C/G Am C/G
(over and over)
G C/G Am C/G
But somewhere along the way
