verse 1 
             C             Em7 
It's where I keep my heart 
        D              G/B 
Where I plan my routes 
         C             Em7 
Where my soul comes from 
        D                       
Where I learn to sing the blues 
G/B           C             Em7 
Raised on the saving grace 
  D         
I live in love 
G/B       C           Em7 
My secret hiding place 
         D                 G/B 
When the world's too much 

Pre-Chorus 
        C 
Let the new shine fade 
        D 
Let the lights burn out 
        C 
Let the time slip away 
    D 
And bury me in that ground 

         C        Em7 
When I'm all used up 
        D       G 
And I'm old and grey 
         C         Em7 
When the well runs dry 
       D                   G 
And my mind just ain't the same 
          C      Em7 
Won't you set me free 
          D          G 
Where the tall pines stand 
            C       Em7 
Where I was born to be 
           D   G 
Back in my homeland 

verse 2 
    C      
The world may change 
    Em7        D                   
But this whole town's still the same 
G/B          C 
There's that old dirt road 
Em7          D  
Next to that run down bank 
G/B          C             Em7 
There's that beat up truck 
      D         
In my dad's backyard 
G/B         C 
I can still hear it run 
     Em7        D             G/B       
When we used to drive it hard 

Pre-Chorus 
        C 
Let the new shine fade

Let the lights burn out

Let the time slip away 
    D 
And bury me in that ground 
 
         C        Em7 
When I'm all used up 
        D       G 
And I'm old and grey 
         C         Em7 
When the well runs dry 
       D                   G 
And my mind just ain't the same 
          C      Em7 
Won't you set me free
