Tuning: standard
G C D G
climb, climb, i always climb
G C D G
out of bed in the morning and on a mountain made of sand
G C D G
and i know this doesn't rhyme
G C D G
but the clutter on the table is getting out of hand
C Am
i know you tried to see me through
Dm F
but, honey, i'm still having trouble
G Bm
finding out what's you
time, time, it's so sublime
how they say it's non-existent but it's playing with my mind
phone calls don't cost a dime
in the caverns of our feelings where the sun will never shine
i know you tried to see me through
but, honey, i'm still having trouble
finding out what's you
mine, mine, which things are mine
oh, i thought i saw a few before i found out i was blind
i think i see a sign
and it's saying where to go and when i get there what i"ll find
i know you tried to see me through
but, honey, i'm still having trouble
finding out what's you
