Capo 1st fret

Standard (EADGBE)

 Intro

 As I survey the ground for ants

Looking for a place to sit and read

 I'm reminded of the streets of my hometown

 How they're much like this concrete that's warm beneath my feet

And how I'm all wrapped up in my mother's face

With a touch of my father just up around the eyes

And the sound of my brother's laugh

But more wrapped up in what binds our ever distant lives

But if I must go

Things I trust will be better off without me

 But I don't want to know

Life is better off a mystery

 So keep 'em coming these lines on the road

 And keep me responsible be it a light or heavy load

 And keep me guessing with these blessings in disguise

 And I'll walk with grace my feet and faith my eyes

Hometown weather is on TV

And I imagine the lives of the people living there

And I'm curious if they imagine me

Cause they just wanna leave; I wish that I could stay

But I get turned around

And I mistake my happiness for blessing

But I'm blessed as the poor

Still I judge success by how I'm dressing

 So keep 'em coming these lines on the road

 And keep me responsible be it a light or heavy load

 And keep me guessing with these blessings in disguise

 And I'll walk with grace my feet and faith my eyes

 La-la-la’s

So I'll sing a song of my hometown

I'll breathe the air and walk the streets

Maybe find a place to sit and read

And the ants are welcome company

Repeat chorus

 I'll walk with grace my feet and faith my eyes.

 And I'll walk with grace my feet and faith my eyes...
