[Verse 1]
F           C          G       
Last time I saw him we weren’t 
      D
really talking
        F               C       
He said “Hey, how’re you living? 
    G                  D
How’s life been treating you?”
F                   C     G         
Was at the Good Luck Bar before they
      D
closed down
F                Eb            D
About a month before I left town


[Chorus 1]
E              Am          
Oh, how we drift away from 
 C
our friends
                 G                 
And the ones back home they remember
D
when
E               Am          C
You can take me out of your phone
            D         D7       G
If you come knocking I won’t be home


F C G D x2



[Verse 2]
F               C           G       
Finally met for lunch after weeks of
  D
pushing
F                   C              
And the kitchen had dried out just 
 G                D
as we were getting drinks
F             C          G          
Settled in on gossip and restaurants
    D
and nonsense
   F            Eb                
And I wish I was as clever as they 
D
think


[Chorus 2]
E              Am          
Oh, how we drift away from 
 C
our friends
                 G                 
And the ones back home they remember
D
when
E               Am          C
You can take me out of your phone
            D         D7
If you come knocking I won’t be

[Verse 3]
F               C          G       
Twenty thousand years ago, can you 
    D
even imagine
F              C           G        
In the Chauvet caves women painting 
      D
on the wall
F                 C         G       
Pictures of their memories, pictures
         D
of their stories
F                 C             
Pictures of their love affairs, 
G                 D
pictures of their worries
F                Eb                
I wonder if they ever dreamt of us 
  D
at all
Gm
At all


[Chorus 3]
E                     Am            
Oh, we stand on their bones and walk
         C
on their souls
                    G              
And the children who lived grew into
          D
women and men
   C                  D            
And painted over their mothers’ work
          G
again and again
F         C   G  D
Again and again
F         C  G
Again and again

[Outro]
F C G D
Oh
       F  C   G D
How we drift away
F   C      G  D
Oh, how we drift
F C G D
Away
F   C      G  D
Oh, how we drift
F C G D
Away
F C G D
Ooooh
F   C      G  D
Oh, how we drift
