A                      Amaj7
I had to leave home for home
A7                                 D
Packed my car up gave my key to neighbors
           Dm              A
Hope they keep my plants alive
 A
Then I drove four states East
                         A7       D            Dm       A
And every car along the ride was also on their own odyssey


[Refrain 1]
 A         Amaj7
Florida to Tampa
A7
Oregon to Bentley
       D                   Dm           A
These license plates like name tags in reverse migration
 F#m        A             D                A
Every mile closer to the dark side of the moon
  D             A        E
I dunno what’s comin do any of you?


[Chorus]
     A   Amaj7   A7
But last night I think I met my mom
           D         Dm         A
And this afternoon I met my sister
          A Amaj7    A7
And this morning, I finally met my dad
              D            Dm           A
While he was outside just picking up dogshit
      E                        D      Dm   A
Oh, despite everything else I think I met myself


[Verse 2]
 A               Amaj7
I'm having to reinvent
    A7
The way I measure time now
         D                    Dm           A
'Cause "days and hours" feel like a past life
 A                 Amaj7
Tryna learn new manners
      A7             A               D
Like how to greet a stranger on the street
      Dm                A
With nothing but your eyes, oh


[Refrain 2]
 A       Amaj7
Texas to Houston
 A7
New York to The City
 D                     Dm                       A
I know you’re getting slammed but you'll walk again
F#m         A                  D           A
Every mile closer to the dark side of the moon
   D            A        E
I dunno what’s coming I just wanna hold you soon


[Chorus]
 A       Amaj7    A7
But last night I met the Milky Way
            D        Dm               A
As it was shivering outside of my window
 A         Amaj7    A7
And this morning I finally met the birds

               D               Dm             A
'Cause there's nothing else to do but watch them
      E                        D      Dm     A
Oh, despite everything else I think I met myself

[Outro]
A            Amaj7
A few months ago
    A7                     A
I thought the world was ending it was
 D              Dm               A
Burning all the work we'd just begun
                  F#m              A
But then through mornings without traffic
         D               A
Through horizons without smog
 D                      A
I could see that wasn't fire, no
 E
That was just the dawn
