verse 1 
  C            G              D                Am                    
I didn't go to Washington, instead I swept the floor 
                     G             D                 C                  
The only things I've ever done you can't see anymore 
                      G              D               Am             
I knew there would be magic but I turned at the last chance 
                     G                 D          Am G D  Am G D                   
These idle hands are staying scared of making any plans 

verse 2 
           C           G               D              Am             
'Cause the fire needed tending and the windows are so wide 
                     G                     D              C        
Sometimes I feel I'm in the world when I'm looking from inside 
                                  G                              
I will pack down the snow, make a path to the road 
         D                 Am                                      
And I'll think of the long ride 
                      G                      D            Am G D  Am G D        
I hope you don't need snow tires through the Pennsylvania night

I didn't go, I said no, I said no when you asked 
    Am              G               D             C                  
The only things I'm feeling are the empty minutes pass

The sun came up and moved around it's down behind a cloud 
  Am           G              D                         Am G D  Am G D           
I didn't go to Washington and you'll be almost there by now
