This is How the Wind Shifts
Tuning: Half-Step Down
Intro:
GFeel it, the calm after the sEmtorm.
As still as I can Dbe.
I'm finally all aClone until I fall asleep...
Em--C Em--C
Did I escape or am I captured?
Trapped in a cage of rear view Dmirror eyes.
CTriangles that Dlook like faces.
Verse 1:
Em This is what I get
C-Em
for my revenge.
A Dhidden Cmicrophone,
Dan amber alert implanted...
Em...under my skin.
C-Em [D]
It's just in my head but
C it takes me over.
It Dmakes me forget why I'm Emon my way.
These four Gyears feel like a hundred.
Chorus:
EmWest-bound, driving all aClone to make sure that you Dknow.
I've been running sCcared without you.
I Ddrove all night to Emtell you.
In dreams I've seen your Cface with another in my Dplace.

I know it was another life but I never could forget you.
Em--C----D
I never could forget you.
Verse 2:
Em We set it up (we Cset it Emup)
like a house of cards Din a Churricane.
We Ddidn't think it would ever make sense.
Em He set us up (he Cset you Emup),
he knew just where to Dplant it.
C It knocked me over,
it Dmade me forget how I Emfell in love.
How Gmuch I really cared.
Chorus:
EmWest-bound, driving all aClone to make sure that you Dknow.

EmYou'll see me tDhere
like a faCmiliar stranger
sDtanding on the street.
Em I'll say a Dprayer,
I'll introCduce myself
like it's the Dfirst time we'd ever meet.
Em In CaliGfornia,
I'd Amlearn that sometimes you Chave to Drun aEmway.
In CaliGfornia,
Am C--D
I'd find myself again.
