[Intro]
G - D/F# - Cadd2/E - D

[Verse 1]
D G D/F#
Tonight the moon came up, it was nearly full
C D
Way down here on earth, I could feel its pull
G D/F#
The weight of gravity or just the lure of light
C D
Made me want to leave my only home tonight

[Chorus]
G/B C(add2) D
Yeah I'm just wondering how we know where we belong
G/B C D
Is it in a photograph or a dashboard poet's song?
G/B C D
Will I have missed my chance to right some ancient wrong
C D
Should I find myself between here and gone?

[Verse 2]
D G D/F#
Now I could grab my keys, peel out in my truck
C D
With every saint on board bringing me their luck
G D/F#
An' I could drive too fast like a midnight thief
C D
As if there was a way to outrun the grief

[Chorus]
G/B C(add2) D
Yes I'm just wondering how we know where we belong
G/B C D
In a song that's left behind, in a dream I couldn't wake from
G/B C D
Could I have felt the brush of a soul that's passing on
C D
Somewhere in between here and gone

[Bridge]
C G/B
Up above me, wayward angels
C D
A blur of wings and grace
C Bm7
One for courage, one for safety
C D
One for just in case

[Verse 3]
D G D/F#
I thought a light went out but now a candle shines
C D
I thought my tears wouldn't stop then I dried my eyes
G D/F#
And after all of this, the truth that holds me here
C D
Is that this emptiness is something not to fear
