Lost In The back Yard


D
You said this is the last time 
            G
A few times ago
              D
once more its happened 
                         A
thats all in the world i know

                 D
i still hear the echo 
                     G
when you hung up the phone 
               D
i feel like im lost in the back yard 
A                 D                  
just tryin to get home

I woke up in a strage world 
i can aptly desicribe 
it was like the streets of a town i lived in 
when i was too young to drive

it all looked so fimilaiar 
but i cant find my way 
i must have got lost in the back yard
when i went out to play

             A
dont open my eyes 
               D
to nothin like truth
                  G
just leave it all lost in the wind
D                                A
let it hide in the blindness of youth

             D
facts of the matter 
                        G

               D
