D6/sus2             C               G riff 
Things that people do when they're free 

Like visitors from space 
It's hard to find a place 
To blend in and go unrecognized 

I'm waiting for a sign 
I'm standing on the road 
With my mind outstretched to you 

I'm picking something up 
I'm letting something go 
Like a dog I'm fetching this to you
