Edwin McCain, escribe esta canción en la década de los 90´s, luego de una decepción amorosa. Pero es con la serie de televisión Dawson's Creek en los años 1998 y 2003, que esta canción toma fuerza en la radio estadounidense, puesto que se convierte en uno de los referentes de esta serie.
¡Cuatro años de duro trabajo!Este mes de mayo cumplimos cuatro años al aire. Seguimos trabajando en la difusión de este maravilloso instrumento, ¡gracias por participar en nuestra historia!
Em7Cadd9GD Welcome back to earth my fine young lucky southern son Em7Cadd9GD How was your trip to outer-space it sure did look like fun Em7Cadd9GD You seem somewhat puzzled like you just can't readjust Em7Cadd9GD You're covered in the battle scars and pitted up with rust
Bridge 1:
Cadd9D Your mom and dad have missed you and I'm sure your friends agree Cadd9D There's no substitute for solitude and anonymity
Chorus:
GDEm7 I'm just coming down from this cloudy head Cadd9D World was spinnin' around and the voices echo things that she said GDEm7 I'm just coming down from this starry sky Cadd9D I'm just glad to be here and most of all I'm thankful I'm alive
Verse 1:
Em7Cadd9GD I hear the whispers in the crowd from jealous tongues Em7Cadd9GD Shadows from the shameful light my ego's come undone
Bridge 2:
Cadd9D Your dignity has missed you and I'm sure your soul agrees Cadd9D This fire sale has cost you your peace and sanity
Repeat Chorus
Bridge 3:
AmEmGD The path that I must take will lead me to despair AmEmD When I'm a million miles away will no one even care
