Anywhere Like Heaven Lyrics

Maj7
(When I) walk along your city streets & look into your eyes; When I
Maj7
see that simple sadness that across your features lie;
If my spirits start to sink it comes as no surprize. It's been a
Maj7
long way from anywhere like heaven to your town, this
town.
Bb (extra bar)
There's a
Maj7
pasture in the countryside I used to call my own. There's a
Maj7
natural pillow for my head. The grass there is overgrown. I
think of that place from time to time when I want to be alone. I've come
Mj7
long way from anywhere like heaven to your town, this town. Now
people, they live from day to day but they do not count the time.
They don't see their days slipping by, and neither do I.... There's a
Maj7
place inside of every man that's lookin' to be free. Yes, and
Maj7
everybody tells me that it's as it's meant to be.
Still I read their papers and I watch them on the T.V. I've come a
Maj7
long way from anywhere, like heaven to your town, this town. Most
people who live from day to day simply do not count the time, you know.
They don't see their days slipping by, and neither do I. When I
Maj7
walk along your city streets & look into your eyes; When I
Maj7
see that simple sadness that across your features lie - I see lies,
If my spirit starts to sink it comes as no surprize, I've come a
Maj
long way from anywhere like heaven to your town, this town.
