[Bm]There's a map of the world on the wall in your room
Green [Em]pins where ya wanna [Bm]go
White [G]pins where ya been, there isn't even ten,
You're al[D]ready feeling old

[Bm]Pretty faces stare back
From a magazine stack
That you [Em]read when
You're feeling [Bm]bored
Look through a [G]telescope lens
It doesn't make sense
You [D]think you've been there before

Some [G]far off feelings
Some up close kind of [D]ache
A [G]wide screen reason to
Look the other [F#]way

There's a [Bm]place by the lake
That you go when it's late
It was [Em]summer and the crowds were [Bm]gone
And you [G]sit all alone with
With your thoughts, gettin stoned
Just [D]waitin for some peace to come

Like the [Bm]thing that you
Tried that you thought you liked
For a[Em]minute then it all felt [Bm]wrong
So your [G]changin again
All your clothes, all your friends
Just the [D]same as it ever was

Some [G]far off feelings
Some up close kind of [D]ache
A [G]wide screen reason to
Look the other [F#]way

[Bm] [G] [Bm] [G] [F#]
[Bm] [G] [A]

It's a [Bm]road that you've paved
Over Indian graves and
You [Em]wonder why your dreams are [Bm]crazed
So you [G]cling to your wife,
Your kids, and you life
There's [D]nothin that you're gonna save

Put the [Bm]razor to your face,
Hot water for a shave
Kill the [Em]shadow of yester[Bm]day
Clean [G]shirt, clean pants,
Clean sleet second chance
You're [D]goin by another name

Some [G]far off feelings
Some up close kind of [D]ache
A [G]wide screen reason to
Look the other [F#]way
