However it can be played poorly with a Capo on the first fret using / / / Across the street the river runs   Down in the gutter life is slipping away   Let me still exist in another place   Running down under cover Of a helicopter blade   The flames are getting higher in effigy   Burning down the bridges of my memory   Love may still alive somewhere someday   where they’re downing only deer a hundred steel towns away   Oh rhythm of my heart is beating like a drum   with the words "I Love you" rolling off my tongue   No never will I roam for I know my place is home   Where the ocean meets the sky I’ll be sailing   Photographs and kerosene light up my darknesslight it up light it up   I can still feel the touch of your thin blue jeans   Running down the alley I’ve got my eyes all over you baby Oh baby   Oh rhythm of my heart is beating like a drum   with the words "I Love you" rolling off my tongue   No never will I roam for I know my place is home   Where the ocean meets the sky I’ll be sailing  (I’ll be sailing)   ...Oh yeah...   Oh I’ve got lightning in my veins shifting like the handle of a slot machine   Love may still exist in another place.   I’m just yanking back the handle no expression on my face.   == Chorus 3x == Oh rhythm of my heart is beating like a drum   with the words "I Love you" rolling off my tongue   No never will I roam for I know my place is home   Where the ocean meets the sky I’ll be sailing
