  Looking for  a place   to      sit     and     read

VERSE 1
  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

VERSE 2
  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

VERSE 3
  Hometown weather is on TV
  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

BRIDGE 1
  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

CHORUS:
G            C            D7           G
  So keep'em coming these lines on the road
G               C                 D7             Em
  And keep me responsible be it a light or heavy load
G             C                   D7              G
  And keep me guessing with these blessings in disguise
G                    C                 D7          G
  And I'll walk with grace my feet and faith my eyes

VERSE 4
  Even from Chico to Charlottesville
  I'm always well provided for
  But left with longing just enough
  To remind me of the day before

VERSE 5
  And to visit places from my past
  But only for an hour or so
  Which is long enough to smell the air
  To tell the tale and find the door

BRIDGE 2
  But I get turned around
  I mistake some happiness for blessing
  But I'm blessed as the poor
  Still I judge success by how I'm dressing

REPEAT CHORUS

SOLO: Fmaj9, C, G, G, Fmaj9, C, G, D, Dhi

VERSE 6
  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

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