I Must Belong Somewhere
Intro: C G Am F G
C G Am F
C G Am F G
Leave the bright blue door on the whitewashed wall
C G Am F G
Leave the death ledger under city hall
Am G C F G C G Am F G
Leave the joyful air in that rubber ball today
C G Am F G
Leave the lilac print on the linen sheet
C G Am F G
Leave the birds you killed at your father's feet
Am G C F G C G Am F G
Let the sideways rain and the crooked street remain
C G Am F G
Leave the whimpering dog in his cold kennel
C G Am F G
Leave the dead starlet on her pedestal
Am G C F G C G Am F G
Leave the acid kids in their green fishbowls today
C G Am F G
Just leave the sad guitar in its hardshell case
C G Am F G
Leave the worried look on your lover's face
Am G C F G C G Am F G
Let the orange embers in the fireplace remain
Am F
Everything it must belong somewhere
Am F G
A train off in the distance, bicycle chained to the stairs
Am G C F
Everything it must belong somewhere
G
I know that now, that is why I'm staying here
C G Am F G
C G Am F
C G Am F G
Leave the ocean's roar in the turquoise shell
C G Am F G
Leave the widower in his private hell
Am G C F G C G Am F G
Leave the liberty in that broken bell today
C G Am F G
Leave the epic poem on its yellowed page
C G Am F G
Leave the gray macaw in its covered cage
Am G C F G C G Am F G
Let the traveling band on the interstate remain
Am F
Everything it must belong somewhere
Am F G
Sound stage in California, televisions in Times Square
Am G C F
Everything it must belong somewhere
G Am
I know that now that is why I'm staying here
F G
Yeah, I know that now, that is why I'm staying here
C G Am F G
C G Am F
C G Am F G
Leave the secret talks on the trundle bed
C G Am F G
Leave the garden tools in that rusted shed
Am G C F G C G Am F G
Leave those bad ideas in your troubled head today
C G Am F G
Leave the restless ghost in his old hotel
C G Am F G
Leave the homeless man in that cardboard cell
Am G C F G C G Am F G
Let the painted horse on the carousel remain
Am F
Everything it must belong somewhere
Am F G
Just like the gold around her finger or the silver in his hair
Am G C F
Everything it must belong somewhere
G Am
I know that now, that's why I'm staying here
F G C
I know that now, that's why I'm staying here
Em Am
In truth the forest hears each sound
F G
Each blade of grass as it lies down
Em Am
The world requires no audience
F Fm
No witnesses, no witnesses
C G Am F G
C G Am F
C G Am F G
Leave the old town drunk on his wooden stool
C G Am F G
Leave the autumn leaves in their swimming pool
Am G C F G C G Am F G
Leave the poor black child in his crumbling school today
C G Am F G
Leave the novelist in his daydream tune
C G Am F G
Leave the scientist in his Rubik's cube
Am G C F G C G Am F G
Let the true genius in the padded room remain
C G Am F G
Leave the horse's hair on the slanted bow
C G Am F G
Leave the slot machines on the riverboat
Am G C F G C G Am F G
Leave the cauliflower in the casserole today
C G Am F G
Leave the hot bright trash in the shopping malls
C G Am F G
Leave the hawks of war in their capitol
Am G C F G C G Am F G
Let the organ's moan in the cathedral remain
Am F
Everything it must belong somewhere
Am F G
They locked the Devil in the basement, threw God up into the air
Am G C F
Everything it must belong somewhere
G Am
And you know it's true, I wish you'd leave me here
F G Am E F
You know it's true, why don't you leave me here?
