Boy & Bear - End of the line

^GThe end of the line A calamity at^C first sight Now the man in me don'^Amt walk right Just like a pebble in my ^Dshoe^D7

And a competent ^Cone at that So it caught me by surpr^Amise this venerability That I never thought I h^Dad

But you trie^Emd so hard to say oh ^Ceverything you w^Ganted to But with an achi^Amng to^Gngue^D- Oh ^Amyou spat out at the world^G now^D not of words but at the^D7 pearl tha^Ct had belon^Gged to her

So I wen^Ct back to the country ^G where t^Che air was mild and sweet^{G Am}I was in need of some reprieve and intermission Oh to gather up my t^Dhings and to get back upon my feet But I cant say^C I've got the answ^Gers For it's ^Calways shades o^Gf grey ^AmBut there's a warmth in the air in mid-September And its ^Denough across my face just to C G [C] G Remind me that I'm well upon my way

^GAnd I feel the ease ^CMan I feel it tingle in my toes How funny are the way tha^Amt these memories do grow Into some old ^Dfrench film in black and white G [C]-G And I know the ropes Because you see I've s^Caid goodbye to some lovers Fleshed out and ^Amtied to each other By that invi^Dsible string it tangles me

^EmAnd when that morning came up fast well it ^CBroke the fever s^Gquare upon its back ^Amand f^Ginall^Dy I felt just like I should oh^Am the blood ^Gunder my fingers warmed ^Dthe clearing of two month st^Corm now d^Gone...

So I went ba^Cck to the co^Guntry where t^Che air's now bitter sweet^{G Am}as subtle is the change of my indifference Oh but stra^Dnge is how this solitude

and I can't ^Cwait 'till t^Ghe morning; be it^C sunshine, hail or snow ^G see I do^Am not believe in superstition But somewhe^Dre amongst this mess C G [C] G I may have found some happiness to call my own

Oh and ^Amtime is a healer^{D7 C}time is a friend of ^Gmine ^Amin time if you fe^D7el it ^Cwould you be a frien^Gd of mine oh I ho^Cpe you're a friend of mine
