Capo: 2nd fret
[Intro]
Em7 C G D/F#
Em7 C G D/F#
[Verse 1]
Em7 C
Time is space and I'm out of place
Gadd9 D/F#
Don't recognize a single face
Em7 C
By now I should have won the race
Gadd9 D/F#
But I haven't found a home
Em7 C
Seems to me if you go catch that vine
Gadd9 D/F#
And swing to the next tree branch in time
Em7 C
The years add up and you fall behind
Gadd9 D/F#
And you're left to walk alone
Em7 C Gadd9 D/F#
So I'm drifting I'm drifting I'm drifting
Em7 C Gadd9 D/F#
Yeah I'm drifting and I'm drifting and I'm drifting
[Chorus]
Em7 C
Meet a stranger, tag along
Gadd9 D/F#
Maybe smoke a cigarette all wrong
Em7 C
Tell a story, sing a song
Gadd9 D/F#
Lay my head where it don't belong
Em7 C
Somehow it occurs to me
Gadd9 D/F#
That out here on the deep blue sea
Em7 C
There are other people drifting too
Gadd9 D/F# Em7 C
Maybe someday baby I'll drift into you
Gadd9 D/F# Em7 C
Maybe someday baby I'll drift into you
[Verse 2]
Em7 C
Called my shrink the other day
Gadd9 D/F#
Forgot what I was gonna say
Em7 C
So I lied and said I lost my way
Gadd9 D/F#
'Cus I couldn't let him down
Em7 C
Put my leather jacket on
Gadd9 D/F#
To play the part of bad boy John
Em7 C
The broken heart and vagabond
Gadd9 D/F#
And wandered into town
Em7 C Gadd9 D/F#
'Cus I'm drifting yeah I'm drifting yeah I'm drifting
Em7 C Gadd9 D/F#
Yeah I'm drifting yeah I'm drifting I'm drifting
[Chorus]
Em7 C
Meet a stranger, tag along
Gadd9 D/F#
Maybe smoke a cigarette all wrong
Em7 C
Tell a story, sing a song
Gadd9 D/F#
Lay my head where it don't belong
Em7 C
Somehow it occurs to me
Gadd9 D/F#
That out here on the deep blue sea
Em7 C
There are other people drifting too
Gadd9 D/F# Em7 C
Maybe someday baby I'll drift into you
Gadd9 D/F#
Maybe someday baby I'll drift into you
[Bridge]
Em7 C
For the moment 'till the moment is gone
Gadd9 D/F#
Lonesome is the road I've been travellin on
Em7 C
I've gone where I wanted I don't miss anyone
Gadd9 D/F#
'Cause I'm drifting
Em7 C
Tryna write a story but I'm stuck on a page
Gadd9 D/F#
God it's been so long I can't remember my age
Em7 C
I'm lost till the minute that I step on the stage
Gadd9 D/F#
'Cus I'm drifting
Em7 C Gadd9 D/F#
And I'm drifting
[Chorus]
Em7 C
Meet a stranger, tag along
Gadd9 D/F#
Maybe smoke a cigarette all wrong
Em7 C
Tell a story, sing a song
Gadd9 D/F#
Lay my head where it don't belong
Em7 C
Somehow it occurs to me
Gadd9 D/F#
That out here on the deep blue sea
Em7 C
There are other people drifting too
Gadd9 D/F# Em7 C
Maybe someday baby I'll drift into you
Gadd9 D/F# Em7 C
Maybe someday baby I'll drift into you
Gadd9 D/F#
Maybe someday baby I'll drift into you
Time and space, little out of place
Don’t recognize a single face
By now I shoulda won the race
But I haven’t found a home
Seems to me if you don’t catch that vine
And swing to the next tree branch in time
The years add up and you fall behind
And you’re left to walk alone
So, I’m driftin, driftin, and I’m driftin
And I’m driftin, and I’m driftin, and I’m driftin
Meet a stranger, tag along
Maybe smoke a cigarette all wrong
Tell the story, sing a song
Lay my head where it don’t belong
And some how it occurs to me, that out here on the deep blue sea
There are other people driftin too
Maybe someday, baby I’ll drift into you
Maybe someday, baby I’ll drift into you
Called my shrink the other day
Forgot what I was gonna say
So I lied and said I lost my way
Cause I couldn’t let him down
Put my leather jacket on
To play the part of bad boy John
The broken-hearted vagabond
Had wandered into town
Cause I’m driftin, I’m driftin, and I’m driftin
Yeah I’m driftin, and driftin, and driftin
Meet a stranger, tag along
Maybe smoke a cigarette all wrong
Tell the story, sing a song
Lay my head where it don’t belong
And some how it occurs to me, that out here on the deep blue sea
There are other people driftin too
Maybe someday, baby I’ll drift into you
Maybe someday, baby I’ll drift into you
Wait for a moment ‘til the moment is gone
Lonesome is the road I’ve been travelin on
I go where I want and I won’t miss anyone
Cause I’m driftin
I’m tryin to write a story but I’m stuck on the page
God it’s been so long can’t remember my age
I’m lost til the moment that I step on the stage
Cause I’m driftin
And I’m driftin
Meet a stranger, tag along
Maybe smoke a cigarette all wrong
Tell the story, sing a song
Lay my head where it don’t belong
And some how it occurs to me, that out here on the deep blue sea
There are other people driftin too
Maybe someday, baby I’ll drift into you
Maybe someday, baby I’ll drift into you
Maybe someday, baby I’ll drift into you
