Hey now little speedyhead the read on the speedometer says
     D              Dm         Asus4

       D                Dm
Where people drown and people serve
Asus4              Dsus4             D         Dm            Asus4
Don't be shy, your just deserve, is only just light years to go
 
  G                  A                  D               Em
  Me my thoughts are flowers strewn, an ocean storm bayberry moon
  G             A                D    (Dsus4)
  I have got to leave to find my way
  G                  A             D                  Em
  Watch the road and memorize this life that passed before my eyes
      G          A        D
  Nothing is going my way
 
D  Dm  Asus4  Dsus4  D  Dm  Asus4
 
 D                Dm               Asus4             Dsus4 
The ocean is the river's goal, the need to leave the water knows
       D               Dm            Asus4
We're closer now, than light years to go
 
  G              A               D           Em
  I have got to find the river, Bergamot and vetiver
  G               A             D    (Dsus4)
  Run through my head and fall away
  G                   A             D                 Em
  Leave the road and memorize this life that passed before my eyes
       G          A        D
  Nothing is going my way
 
D  Dm  Asus4  Dsus4  D  Dm  Asus4
 
        D              Dm                 Asus4             Dsus4 
There's no one left to take the lead, but I tell you and you can see
       D              Dm            Asus4
We're closer now than light years to go
 D                Dm             Asus4         Dsus4 
Pick up here and chase the ride, river empties to the tide
 D   Dm       Asus4
Fall into the ocean
 
  G            A            D               Em
  River to the ocean goes a fortune for the undertow
  G               A        D
  None of this is going my way
  G                A                D               Em
  There is nothing left to grow but ginger, lemon, indigo
  G                  A       D 
  Coriander stem and rose of hay
  G                A                D               Em
  Strength and courage overrides the privileged and weary eyes
  G                A       D
  Of river poet search naivete
  G                A                   D             Em
  Pick up here and chase the ride, the river empties to the tide
  G              A           D
  All of this is coming your way
