intro
A Bm F#m E x2
A F#m E
If all my lovers sing the big words
A F#m E
And all my brothers keep them small
Bm E A
Then I get lost in the difference, between their whisper and the echo of their call
A F#m E
So I am headed for the ocean,
A F#m E
to let the sea-smoke guide me in.
Bm E F#m
I'll give up my belongings and questions, they only ever taught me to begin.
A
So I will not turn around, as I step up to the train,
Bm F#m E
But I'll hear it when you call my name.
A
And I will not be the sound, of your roof under the rain,
Bm F#m E
But I'll hear it when you call my name.
A F#m E
So I am taking off my wrist watch,
A F#m E
to let the time move how I please.
Bm E A
To let my day be guided by the sunlight, through mornings knell and twilights soft release
A F#m E
So if you want to get to know me,
A F#m E
follow my smile into it's curves
Bm E F#m
All these lines are born in sorrows and in pleasures, and every man ends up with
the face that he deserves.
A
So I will not give you bread, as you reach out from your cage,
Bm F#m E
But I'll hear it when you call my name.
A
And I will not give applause, as you step off of the stage,
Bm F#m E
But I'll hear it when you call my name.
A F#m E
There's a river running through the city
A F#m E
Gently reminding me what's what.
Bm E A
Of course, you are invited to come with me, but I don't think that's really what you want.
A F#m E
I think you want a world that will hold you,
A F#m E
Through security, and gravity, and love
Bm E F#m
And I can't think of anyone who'd blame you, and I can't think of how that'd be enough.
A
So I won't come back around, when you've cursed the ground you've tamed,
Bm F#m E
But I'll hear it when you call my name
A
And when you realize once I'm gone, that I never really came,
Bm F#m E
Oh, I'll hear it when you call my name.
A
And when the burden of the sun, reveals to you it's pain,
Bm F#m E
Oh, I'll hear it when you call my name.
A
And when you realize that you're wrong, but you still give me all the blame,
Bm F#m E
I'll hear it when you call my name.
