Another Travelin Song Chords

bright eyes
standard tuning
im wide awake its morning
tabbed by mark sheary
im not sure when there are question marks but its close.

Intro - Bm

Bm
well I’m changing all my strings
                                    E
I’m gonna write another travellin song
  Bm 
about all the billion highways
                               F# 
and the cities at the break of dawn 
Bm
well I guess the best that I can do now
                                   E
is pretend that I’ve done nothing wrong
F# 
and dream about a train that’s gonna
                         Bm 
take me back where I belong 
Bm
now the ocean speaks and spits 
                               E
and I can hear it from the interstate 
  Bm                     
and I’m screaming at my brother
                            F#
on the cell phone, he is far away 
Bm
and I’m sayin’ nothing in the past
                               E
or future ever will feel like today 
F#
until we’re parkin in an alley,
                         Bm
just hopin that our shit is safe
 
        E                 Bm
so I go back and forth forever
        E                    Bm
all my thoughts, they come in pairs
        E                          Bm?
well I will I won’t I doubt I don’t I’m not surprised
            Bm
But I never feel quite prepared (woo!)

DEAD STRUMMING -- 

Now I’m hunched over a typewriter
                                    
I guess you’d call that paintin’ in a cave

And there’s a word I can’t remember
                        
and a feeling I can not escape 

And now my ashtray’s overflowin
                                
I’m still starin at a clean white page



F# 
And morning’s at my window 
                             Bm 
and she is sending me to bed again
Bm 
Well I dreamed the dark on the horizon,
                                    E
I dreamed a desert where the dead layed down
F# 
I dreamed a prostituted child
                                Bm?
touching an old man in a fast food crown
Bm 
Oh Yeah I dreamt a ship was sinkin’, 
                                E
there was people screamin’ all around 
F#
And I awoke to my alarm clock,
                                  Bm
it was a pop song, it was playin’ loud


 
           E                     Bm
So I will find my fears and face them
           E                Bm
Or I will cower like a dog 
          E                       Bm?
I will kick and scream or kneel and plead
           Bm
I will fight like hell to hide that I’m giving up

-Bm-
