[Intro]
Em C Am Em

[Verse 1]
Em
I buckle in my seatbelt and plug my headset in a chair
C
And to the music, I watch flight attendants move
Am
They are pointing out the exits, but it looks more like a prayer
Em
Or an ancient dance their bloodline reaches through
Em
These planes are good for sifting through

The warriors from the men
C
I get time to sit and watch them for a while
Am
You can see everywhere they're going

And everywhere they've been
Em
In how they look out at the clouds each time they smile

[Chorus 1]
Em C
And I think 'maybe he's in town for someone's birthday
Em C
Or maybe he makes trouble everywhere
Em
But as much he resists the conversation
C
Between the rivers and the freeways
Am D Em
He knows it's always there'

[Verse 2]
Em
As the Northwest Passage sits somewhere below me as I sleep
C
I dream of captains and explorers eating boots
Am
When I ask if I can join them, and they offer one to me
Em
I wake up as my home comes into view
Em
So I reached out down for my notebook to see what impressions could be spun
C
But it's just buildings and a million swimming pools
Am
So I leaf back through the pages to see where I am from
Em
Or for some crumbling map of what it's leading to
