[Verse 1]
               D
I heard the preachers' speak at Crooked Creek
             G
I heard the coyote howl from deep in my bowels
              D
I heard the trees slow dance in the neon wild
           G
Ain’t it crazy how I still feel like a child?
 
 
[Chorus]
              D                  Em7
I heard the sound of a new world     being born
Asus4                    G
Thrashin' and a-crashin'   into form
         D                   Em7
I heard love in the distance calling my name
Asus4                   G
Assuring me that everything is the same

[Verse 2]
          D
I took a ride on a raindrop and what do you know?
   G
I came across sadness sitting alone
           D
I said, “What’s the matter sadness, why are you so sad?”
 G
Sadness replied, "That’s just how I am"
 
 
[Chorus]
                D                Em7
And there was laughter after the carousel
   Asus4                      G
Completing the circle, far as I could tell
             D                             Em7
And you can see where you’re going without doing the math
          Asus4                             G
If you’re stepping in shit, you’re probably   on the path

[Verse 3]
      D
Yeah, I know God, she’s a friend of mine
      G
Comes over for beers all of the time
         D
Says the only thing certain is they'll draw the curtain
     G
And tie a little bow around your lovin' and hurtin'
 
 
[Chorus]
              D                  Em7
I heard the sound of a new world     being born
Asus4                    G
Thrashin' and a-crashin'   into form
         D                   Em7
I heard love in the distance calling my name
Asus4                   G
Assuring me that everything is the same
