Adam Melchor - Boardwalk royalty

N.C.

Where the hell are you? I thought you'd never ask I am somewhere in between the distant future and the past Oh, I am thinking 'bout what coulda been And what is done and dead While I'm chasing both the desert sun and staying off the grid Oh, there's holy rollers, men of God playing frisbee on the lawn Won't you say a prayer for me to keep it in one piece 'til dawn? Oh, I gotta get to California, I can't stay for long And my sister's got a brand new baby tucked inside her arms And I ^F#mknow ^B that's where I be^F#mlong ^B That's where I belong ^E

^EWhen you're looking up at Saturn, I'm up there, among the stars ^ELike a sequence in the pattern, the humming of the trains and cars ^AWaiting for the sunrise with a mother's sense of loyalty ^F#mLaughing over water taffy ^Blike you're boardwalk royalty

^EHere is my domain, I'll never change 'cause what's in front of me ^EIs held inside my heart more, dear, than all the pain has done to me ^AAnd calluses run deep, from my lashes to my arteries ^F#mNow I know the wonder of it ^Ball is just a part of me

^EOh (Ahh-ahh-ahh-ahh) This is where I ^Ebelong (Ahh-ahh-ahh-ahh) This is where I ^Abelong (Ahh-ahh-ahh-ahh) This is where I ^F#mbelong^B (Ahh-ahh-ahh-ahh-ahh-ahh)

This is where I belong ^E(Ahh-^Dbmahh-ah^E/Bh)
