[Verse 1]
C G Am F C G F
You'd hung a map and thrown a dart or so we say when you depart, and I skipped work to say goodbye.
C G Am F C G C
And while you had your car inspection done, a poetic wax on Lexington, and you refused to look me in the eye
G Am F C G F
And I wouldn't hear from you before you passed over the New River Gorge, and you found time to let me know
C G Am F C G
It's rare for you to be up more than down, but as you crossed into Morgantown, you knew the mountains were
C
your home.
[Chorus 1]
F C G Am
But you think two days will do, you're just under so much pressure, like if it were up to you, you
F G
just let all of it go,
F C G F C
and everything you knew never seemed so unimportant, but we're all waiting for you.
[Verse 2]
G Am F C G F
Just how you got to Santa Fe, you did not post, so I cannot say, but you filled in some blanks for me
C G Am F C G C
when you stopped to recuperate in an Amarillo Super 8, you were tired and not the way you'd hoped to be.
G Am F C
Admitted you prayed for a tire to blow out, so you'd have something to write about, but your luck
G F
just never seems to change.
C G Am F C G C
Some Samaritans you canonized beneath the vast Montana skies, but you had no reason to be saved.
[Chorus 2]
F C G Am
But you confess you've had a few, it's so cheap out in the desert, but there's little else to do,
F G
so you thought you'd just check in.
Am F G F C
Did you need a witness to a little momentary rapture? You know I'm always here for you.

[Verse 3]
G Am F
I'm sure the great river ran across your hands with a shiny kiss and no demands,
C G F
or at least that's how you'll remember it,
C G Am F
and every little church sang sweet in Louisville, with the right foundation and your mother's approval,
C G C
and those notes that I could never hit.
[Chorus 3]
F C G Am
But if you should ask me to, well I guess I could regale you with all the things I found to do,
F G
while you go split the world in two.
Am F G Am F G
But to tell the truth, I guess I was kind of hoping you'd kept track of me the way that I kept track of you.
F C G Am F G
What good is apathy if I can't make you believe it? What good is anything if I can't make you believe?
[Chorus 4]
F C G Am F G
What good is apathy if I can't make you believe it? What good is anything if I can't make you believe?
F C G Am F G
What good is apathy if I can't make you believe it? What good is anything if I can't make you believe?
Am F G
Ooooooo, Ooooooo, Ooooooo
Am F G
Ooooooo, Ooooooo, Ooooooo
