[Verse 1]
C G
1pm by the shadows
Am F
I sit and watch the clouds pass by
D
And though I hope to be where you're going
G C G
I know I can't be where you've been
C G
It's always good to get away
Am D
We hoist the jib up out on the lake
C
And soon the moon comes out
G C
The water's still from where we lay
[Pre-Chorus]

And if it's looking like the rain might come and pour upon your cabin

Just remember this is where you come to see the sun and

Leave your conscience for days

Because no one wants to play

Where I am, where I am, where I am

Always good, always good, always good
Am D7
That's what they say now, out on the lake now
C
And if you can't find the castle in the clouds
G
Then you might as well climb Major
C
Just make it up and down in an hour
[Pre-Chorus]
D
Bounce a lot, Shakers, I'm undampening a coma

Round and round yourself will only lead you home and
C Em Am Asus4 Am
Leave your conscience for days

Oh well they call it "The Flashlight Blues"

Because no one wants to play
