    giving me a paper chase, but the sun was coming.

    'Cause all at once he looked into my space,

                                           C                                               Bb

    and stamped a number over my face and it sent me running.

                                Dm                                          C

    So go where you will as long as you think you can,

                                                           C                                           Bb
