clouds are always passing over

the place I live.

C
The place I live 
         Bm
passing under 
   Em                   D
my feet while my mind wanders 
             C
in a sea of fog.

C
On a ridge 
                  Bm
seeing through a hole in the fog

I say to myself

       Em
the landscape 
              D
a blanket on stone 

("where an ocean of glaciers rolled")

Land waves are rolling. 
               Bm
("Through a fog, this is a brief life.") 
              ("Short and cold, momentarily.")

                  G
I come out from under.
