Intro Am  C  F  G   
        Am  C  F  G   

A           F            A    E 
Baby, I am waiting for a ride 
           F   
And it may take some time 
Am           Em      F      Am  E       
But you know I would fly if I could fly 
F                      Am     E  
Climb if I could climb and my dreams 
   C           Am      E             C 
As everything with me, are just like that 
Am      E       F     Am        Em    
Where I see the place I need to be 
F 
But not the way there 

  Am                               F 
'Cause all the things that we have seen  
            Dm                A   
Are all the things we want to show. 
                                F 
But all the things that we have seen 
        Dm                               Am  C  F  G 
Are not always the things we ever really know  

A             F                   E     
Baby, this is such a pretty mess 
                       F  A 
My little monkeywrench 
                                F 
And it sits where all the machinists 
                Am 
Can examine it 
           E     C    G          E                 
And that's fine, I like reading there minds 
          E         Am       E  
As they're figuring odds and times 
F    Em         Am       E 
It's pointless, but it's fine 
Em      F 
There's nothing to find 

               Am             F  
'Cause all the things that we have seen  
            Dm                Am 
Are all the things we want to show 
                                F 
But all the things that we have seen 
        Dm                              Am  C  F 
Are not always the things we ever really know 

( Am  C  F  Am )
