  Em                     C      Em
Here I am when traffic slowly flows
(Where the needle touched down)
Em                   C              Em
Carbon planes draw a cage round the air force base
(Where the needle touched down)
   Em                     C         Em
My foot on the brake it's ok to fly low
     C         F
Over poor Spanaway
   C                         F
An eagle swooped down from a semi-trailer
         C                        F
Took the name of your town from a shark-toothed freighter
    C                        F
The needle's the same that recorded and played
         C                            F
When you left me at the greyhound the year I moved away
    C                        F
And if I knew then what's so obvious now
G                   C
You'd still be here baby
   F   Fm
My baby, baby
C  F  C  F
   C                       F
So that's why I never come back here
C                           F
That's why they spit out my name
     C                       F
Your ex's have clawed up the bible
G                  C
Trying to keep me away
         C                  F
With the sledge of tectonic fever
    G                  C
The needle has landed again
       G     C
Let it plaaaay
        Em             G      C
And the needle touched dooooown
              F
The needle is landing
        Em             G      C
And the needle touched dooooown
              F
The needle is landing
   C                         F
An eagle swooped down from a semi-trailer

    C                        F
And if I knew then what's so obvious now

You'd still be here baby
