Canyon by Joshua Ray Walker
from the Sofar sounds youtube video
Author's note - After watching the video probably 15 times, I noticed
he accidentally plays the wrong chord but recovers very quickly.
This happens at 1:36 into the video.
G, G, C x3
[Verse]
C G
I was born a wanderer
C G
but my feet can't take me far
C G
this is my own doing
D Em
so I tell stories at the bar
[Verse]
C G
Yeah, I'm afraid of flying
C G
'fraid of falling truth be told
C G
I don't get close to edges
D Em
I'm afraid that I'll let go
[Chorus]
C G
I'm a big big man
C G
not just in size or in stature
B7 Em
in terms of space that can be filled
C G
I'm a bottomless canyon
D Em
without a drop to spill
[Verse]
C G
Are you proud of me?
C G
Are you proud of what I do?
C G
I try to be a better man
B7 Em
than the one that you knew
[Verse]
C G
I'll miss you when your not around
C G
though I wasn't around for you
C G
when your broken body's in the ground
D Em
I'll hope there's room for two
[Chorus]
C G
I'm a big big man
C G
not just in size or in stature
B7 Em
in terms of space that can be filled
C G
I'm a bottomless canyon
D Em
without a drop to spill
[Chorus]
C G
I'm a big big man
C G
not just in size or in stature
B7 Em
in terms of space that can be filled
C G
I'm a bottomless canyon
D Em
without a drop to spill
[Outro]
C G
I'm a bottomless canyon
D Em
without a drop to spill
