Direction

• G

From the 2001 Album "Sebastopol."  Words and music by Jay Farrar.

I believe this is in 6/8 time.  For the intro, pull off the B string with your ring 
like on the third strum of each bar of G and Cadd9 like so:

  G                         Cadd9
e|--3-3-3-3--3-|3-3-3-3--3-|-3-3-3-3--3-|-3-3-3-3--3-|
B|--3-3-3-p0-h3|3-3-3-p0-h3|-3-3-3-p0-h3|-3-3-3-p0-h3|
A|--2-2-2-2--2-|2-2-2-2--3-|-3-3-3-3--3-|-3-3-3-3--3-|
E|--3-3-3-3--3-|3-3-3-3--3-|-x-x-x-x--x-|-x-x-x-x--x-|

Intro: G Cadd9 x2

 G Along for the ride or just watching the time
The spirit of the one constant thread
Policing yourself, a lifelong pursuit
Hanging on to the ring of the bell

 D And it's out on the town
The  Dsus2  world spins around
And the  Cadd9 rules we'd rather forget
It's  D  not what we're here for
So  Dsus2  dear to die for
 Cadd9 Believe it's worth saving  G  yet

Intro again

 G City sounds, a life of their own
Never found any other way
Not to preach or teach
Not good at either one
There's a space that shines in the sun

 D Then it's out on the town
The  Dsus2  world spins around
In  Cadd9  step with the best intention
It  D  is what we're here for
So  Dsus2  dear to die for
 Cadd9 Count me in your  G  direction

Intro again to close
