Intro:
|D |G |D |Bm A |
|G |D A |G |G/A |
D G
Well I looked into a house I once lived in
D Bm
Around the time I first went on my own
A G D
When the roads were as many as the places I had dreamed of
A G
And my friends and I were one
D A/C# C G/B
Now the distance is done and the search has begun
D G D A
I've come to see where my beginnings have gone
D G
Oh the walls and the windows were still standing
D Bm
And the music could be heard at the door
A G D
Where the people who kindly endured my odd questions
A G
Asked if I came very far
D A/C# C G/B
And when my silence replied they took me inside
D G D D7
Where their children sat playing on the floor
G D G D
Well we spoke of the changes that would find us farther on
G D A
And it left me so warm and so high
G D G D
But as I stepped back outside to the grey morning sun
F#m Bm Em/A
I heard that highway whisper and sigh
G G/A
Are you ready to fly?
D G
And I looked into the faces all passing by
D Bm
It's an ocean that will never be filled
A G D
And the house that grows older and finally crumbles
A G
That even love cannot rebuild
D A/C# C G/B
It's a hotel at best, you're here as a guest
D A
You oughta make yourself at home while you're waiting for the rest
G D
Well I looked into dream of the millions
G D
That one day the search will be through
Bm F#m Em/A
Now here I stand at the edge of my embattled illusions
G G/A
Looking into you
Solo:

|Bm |F#m |Em/A |G/A |
D G
The great song traveler passed through here
D Bm
And he opened my eyes to the view
A G D
And I was among those who called him a prophet
A G
And I asked him what was true
D A/C# C G/B
Until the distance had shown how the road remains alone
D A
Now I'm looking in my life for a truth that is my own
G D
Well I looked into the sky for my anthem
G D
And the words and the music came through
Bm F#m Em/A
But words and music can never touch the beauty that I've seen
G
Looking into you - and that’s true
