DG
Well I looked into a house I once lived in
DBm
Around the time I first went on my own
AGD
When the roads were as many as the places I had dreamed of
AG
And my friends and I were one
DA/C#CG/B
Now the distance is done and the search has begun
DGDA
I've come to see where my beginnings have gone
DG
Oh the walls and the windows were still standing
DBm
And the music could be heard at the door
AGD
Where the people who kindly endured my odd questions
AG
Asked if I came very far
DA/C#CG/B
And when my silence replied they took me inside
DGDD7
Where their children sat playing on the floor
GDGD
Well we spoke of the changes that would find us farther on
GDA
And it left me so warm and so high
GDGD
But as I stepped back outside to the grey morning sun
F#mBmEm/A
I heard that highway whisper and sigh
GG/A
Are you ready to fly?
DG
And I looked into the faces all passing by
DBm
It's an ocean that will never be filled
AGD
And the house that grows older and finally crumbles
AG
That even love cannot rebuild
DA/C#CG/B
It's a hotel at best, you're here as a guest
DA
You oughta make yourself at home while you're waiting for the rest
GD
Well I looked into dream of the millions
GD
That one day the search will be through
BmF#mEm/A
Now here I stand at the edge of my embattled illusions
GG/A
Looking into you

DG
The great song traveler passed through here
DBm
And he opened my eyes to the view
AGD
And I was among those who called him a prophet
AG
And I asked him what was true
DA/C#CG/B
Until the distance had shown how the road remains alone
DA
Now I'm looking in my life for a truth that is my own
GD
Well I looked into the sky for my anthem
GD
And the words and the music came through
BmF#mEm/A
But words and music can never touch the beauty that I've seen
G
Looking into you - and that’s true
