1.    I been locked out, I been locked in,

             G                                            D

    but I always seem to come back again.

                            G                           D

    You're in that room, what do you do ?

         G                                             D

    I know that I will have you in the end.

                     A                              G

    And the clouds they are crying on you,

                                                                    -  D

    and the birds are offering up their tunes.

               A                                G

    In a shack as remote as a mansion,

                 Bm                                               F#
     you escape into a place where nothing moves.

2. I been locked out, and I know we're through,

             G                                           D

    but I can't begin to face up to the truth.

                  G                               D

   I wait so long for the walls to crack,

                G                                                 D

    but I know that I will one day have you back.

                   A                              G

    And the hills are as soft as a pillow,

                                                              - D

    and they cast a shadow on my bed.

                   A                                            G

    And the view when I look through my window,

           Bm                                             F#

   is an altarpiece I'm praying to for the living and the dead.

C                                                         Bm

    I hear valley shines in the morning sun.

C                                                      Bm    - F#

    I send a message out to my only one.

3. I been locked out, and I know we're through,

             G                                           D

    but I can't begin to face up to the truth.

                  G                               D

   I wait so long for the walls to crack,

                G                                                 D

    but I know that I will one day have you back.

                A                                        G

    And I work with the bees and the honey,

                                                   D

     every night I circle like the moon.

                A                       G

    It's an act of simple devotion,

        Bm                                                      F#

    but it can take forever when you've got something to prove.

                            C  - Bm               C   - Bm
