[Intro 1]
[G][C][G][C][G]

[Verse 1]
I'm [G]high on a hill
[C]Looking over a sma[G]ll town
I see trucks roll in and trucks roll [D]out
I'm [Am]somewhere [C]in southwest
[Em]WN
Never been [D]here before,
[C]may never be [G]again[Em][D][C]
[G]People have been kind,
[C]I've been fed and I've been wat[G]ered[C][G]
I've been given a place to stay
Up this hill in [D]single quarters
[Am]I'm thinkin' of walkin' down to the town
[C]But it's hard to walk up [Em]again
So I [D]sit here with the birds, [C]watching me,
watching [G]me[Em][D][C]
Shad[G]ows creep on the hillside,
[C]a crow flies hard to the win[G]d
I wish I could be that certain
of where to go [D]next
Big [Am]ol'
Jarrah tree [C]is holdin'
up the [Em]sky[Am][Em]
This [D]trunk's a storehouse of
[C]years gone by[G][Em]
Years gone [D]by[C]
[G]Hig[Am]h on a hil[Em]l
world [D]is quiet and [C]still[Am]
If you get a clear [Em]day[D]
You can see along the [C]way
Light[G]s come on
Good [C]people are in [G]their homes
Lovin' wives and husbands,
lovin' at [Em]their chil[D]dren's kids
I'm [Am]up here in the trees,
[C]high above it all[Em]
I'm [D]holdin' a guitar,
[C]strummin' a few chords[G][Em][D][C]
There's [G]women who've passed me by
[C]An d there's those I've set [G]free
I don't know if any of them
could have [Em]changed [D]me
I [Am]won der if my children k[C]now I'm [Em]alive
I [D]wish I had him with me,
[C]God knows I [G]tried[Em][G][D][C]
I'm [G]a long way from where I was born
[C]But I'm closer to my [G]grief
Just when I leave here, I cannot [D]see
I [Am]hear the distant sound
[C]Of a car slowing [Em]down[G][Em]
I [D]hear them speed up again,
[C]as they leave [G]town[Em][G][D]
[C]As they leave tow[G]n[Em][G][D]
[C]A theory of t[G]ime[Em][D][C]
[G]Oh,[Am] I kn[Em]ow[D]
It's quiet [C]and still, [Am]if you get a clear day,
[Em]you [D]can see a long w[C]ay.[G][Em][D][C]
[G][Em]
