Backroads

I hope this is correct, I worked it out by ear. It's a great song and there's no chords or anything for it so 
I decided to publish what I thought was correct. 

I think it's played in Drop D but it still sounds good played in standard tuning. 


Intro: E E E E E 
       Dbm Dbm A A E E

E
Saw things that the rat saw
A
And my eyes couldn't take them in
E                      A
Just want to fall here silently
Dbm
Into the arms of people I love
A
Under waiting stars as the ships come rolling in

E                                  (B)
But look at the way the faces turn
Dbm
Eyes burn why (eyes burn why)
A
If you be the sky then I'll be the bird
E                                  (B)
But look at the way the faces turn
A                           
Eyes burn why (eyes burn why)
A
If you be the sky then I'll be the bird

E E Dbm Dbm A A E E

E
So the power lines were leaning
A
And all was lost
E
Make a vow with the city lights
A
With your fingers crossed
E
You said I'd be a place and time
A
Said I'd be a man
Dbm
Making eyes with a sea of lies
So you understand
     A
That you're raping on my dreaming
And you're ruining my best made plans

E                                            (B)
The rat he turned and bared his teeth at you
Dbm
The wake is calling, what you gonna do?
A
But your head's gone
And it won't be long
E                                            (B)
The rat he turned and bared his teeth at you
Dbm
The wake is calling, what you gonna do?
A
But your head's gone
And it won't be long

E E

E
So the sinners stopped and the villains turned
A                      E                (Dbm  A)
And I'll be the sky and you be the bird
E
Let's meet the mountains and see what they heard
A                      E                (Dbm  E)
And I'll be the sky and you be the bird

E
And I'll be the sky and you be the bird 
A                          E               (Dbm  A)
Oh, and I'll be the sky and you be the bird 
E                                          (Dbm)
I said, I'll be the sky and you be the bird 
A                      E                   (Dbm  A)  E
And I'll be the sky and you be the bird
