Bm
there's a map of the world on a wall in your room
Em Bm
green pins where you wanna go
G
white pins where you ve been there isn't even ten
D
and you're already feeling old
Bm
Pretty faces stare back from a magazine stack
Em Bm
that you read when you're feeling bored
G
look through a telescope lens it doesn't make sense
D
you think you've been there before
CHORUS:
G D
some far off feeling some upclose kind of ache
G F#m
a widescreen reason to look the other way
there's a place by the lake that you go when it's late
it's summer and the crowds are gone
then you sit all alone with your thoughts getting stoned
just waiting for some peace so come
like a thing that you tried that you thought that you liked
for a minute then it all felt wrong
so you're changing again all your clothes all your friends
it's the same as it ever was
some far off feeling some upclose kind of ache
some widescreen reason to look the other way
Bm G Bm G F#m
ayyyyyyyyyyaya ooooo ooo ooo
Bm G A
ayyyyyyyyyyaya ladum ladum
Its a road that you've paved over indian graves
and you wonder why your dreams are crazed
so you cling to your wife your kids and your life
theres nothing that you're gunna save
put the razor to your face hot water for a shave
kill the shadow of yesterday
clean shirt clean pants clean slate second chance
you're going by another name
some far off feeling some upclose kind of ache
that instant comma it always come too late
ayyyyyyyyyyaya oooooooooo
ayyyyyyyyyyaya ladum ladum
