Land Of a Thousand Words

C                     G
Another constellation dies
C                                     G
Do what you want 'cause it's your own sky
Dm
Just call me when the phone stops ringing
G
Thanks for coming by
C        Bbm5             C
I'm just glad I'm on your good side
G          F
Where it's smoldering or freezing
     G                      C
It's never all that easy to decide


C           G                  F
This is the land of a thousand words
                F       Em                  Dm
But it seems so few are worth the breath to say
       G                            Em
Except I'll be looking after my own world
C       Bbm                     C
And you just keep on saving the day
            F                Em               D
I'll try to stay but it's in vain when you're far
           Abm         G       c
I'm on the run to wherever you are



And that's the nature of the chase

You fall so far behind you end in first place

Pass the torch this time we're running to each's own regret

There'sno harm in playing hard to get

Boundlessness deceives me

Baby you may turn the corner yet



This is the land of a thousand words

But it seems so few are worth the breath to say

Except I'll be looking after my own world

And you just keep on saving the day

I'll try to stay but it's in vain when you're far

I'm on the run to wherever you are



I'm a gonna do everything I say

Tried to stay but time's running out

But now I'm on my way
