I like getting lost

I'll keep wandering off

Verse: 2 
G 
I don't mind kicking back 
G 
I'll throw my feet up and relax 
Cadd9                      G 
Cozy up let time mosey by

From that always drifting place

Where land touches sky

You're the stone in this old suitcase 
D           C            G 
You make me want to stay 

Bridge 
D                         Cadd9 
When every road starts to look the same 
D                     Cadd9 
And faces blend with normal names 
D                   Cadd9 
And all I crave is that one and I could 
                     G        D       Cadd9 
Watch the lines grow on his face, on his face

You're the stone in this old suitcase 
D                    C          G 
You make it so hard to go away 
D                    C                G 
You're the thorn in my traveling bone 
D                    C                G 
There's nothing quite like coming home
