-i leave the house as soon as it gets light outside
-C               G
-like a prisoner breaking out of jail
-G                            A7
-and i steal down to business 15-501
-C                   G
-like i had a bounty hunter on my tail
-              D
-and somebody stops to pick me up
-        C
-but he drops me off just down the block
-                  G      Em
-and along the highway
-           C             G
-where the empty spirits breed
-           D              G
-wild sage growing in the weeds
-walk down the soft shoulder and i count my steps
-headed vaguely eastward, sun in my eyes
-and i lose my footing and i skin my hands breaking my fall
-and i laugh to myself and look up at the skies
-and then i think i hear angels in my ears
-like marbles being thrown against a mirror
-and along the highway
-where unlucky stray dogs bleed
-wild sage growing in the weeds
-F        C                   G            F        C
-and somedays i don't miss my family
-                G       F
-and somedays i do
-     C                     G                 Em
-somedays i think i'd feel better if i tried harder
-C                          D7
-most days i know it's not true
-i lay down right where i felt cold grass in my face
-and i hear the traffic like the rhythm of the tides
-and i stare at the scrape on the heel of my hand
-til it doesn't sting so much and until the blood's dried
-and when somebody asks if i'm ok
-i don't know what to say
-and along the highway
-from cast off innumerable seeds
-wild sage growing in the weeds
