Verse:
  C            Am
Now you and me go parallel together and apart
    C                  Am
And you keep your perfect distance and it's tearing at my heart
    Em
Did you never feel the distance
Em               Am    C G/D G
 Did you never try to cross the line


Verse:
       C            Am
'Cause it's another dirty river and another dirty scar
  C                  Am
And I don't know who's kissing you and I don't know where you are

So far from home
          Am  | Am   C |
Don’t you think of me sometime
