F C
If I could look across the country
Dm Bb
From California to New Jersey
F C Dm
Then I would count the parks and lake resorts
Bb
And number all the jets and airports
C Dm Bb F C
All those rather dreary rain clouds still bother me
Dm Bb F
Cause I look through the camera eyepiece and cannot see
[Verse 2]
F C
If I could open up my window
Dm Bb
And see from Tampa Bay to Juneau
F C Dm
Then I would survey all those open miles
Bb
And line them up in single file
C Dm Bb F C
Everywhere I look I see green scenic sublime
Dm Bb F
And all those oceanic vistas are so divine
[Interlude]
F Bb x4
[Chorus]
Gm F C Gm
If I was standing on the balcony
Dm C
And you were walking down below
Gm F C Gm
I'd feel rather depressed and out of place
Dm C
And lonely just to watch you go
Gm F C Gm
If you were swinging from the highway overpass
Dm C
Within the western hemisphere
Gm F C Bb
I'd feel rather afraid and insincere
C
If you began to disappear
[Instrumental/Synth Solo]
F C Dm Bb x2
C Dm Bb F x2
[Interlude]
F Bb x4
[Chorus]
Gm F C Gm
If I was walking through a sad art gallery
Dm C
And you were driving through the night
Gm F C Gm
I'd feel rather alone and ill at ease
Dm C
Beneath the brilliant showroom light
Gm F C Gm
If I was flying on a plane above your town
Dm C
And you were gazing at the sky
Gm F C Bb
Somehow I'd feel intact and reassured
C
If you began to wave goodbye
