Southern Cross

Mason Jennings

Capo 1

I woke up at 4:35

G

still jet lagged from another plane ride

C
And opened my window over Bondi beach

F
Where all the stars seemed out of reach

Dm
And recognized none but the southern cross

G
Sitting on my bed with the light turned off

C
Till I found a sweet song on the little clock

radio and it made me cry

Dm
Singing have some faith,

have some faith

Chorus:

C F
And I don't know what I want

(C)

but I know where I want to be

F (C)
And everywhere i go, I wish you were here with me

C F
Stars hang on tiny strings,

F (C)

my dreams are made of memories

F
Once everything made sense, now I get so alone that

I can't sleep

Dm G C (x5)
Will somebody please tell me if this is where I'm supposed to be

Bottles on the table and socks on the floor

G
Trying to remember what i started this for

C
When a surfer friend of mine came and picked me up

F
And we paddled out as the sun was coming up

Dm
Talking about how everybody has to find

G
Something that gives them the strength to be alive

C
And out laying on our boards in the southern

hemisphere, he said to me

Dm G
Gotta have some faith, have some faith

Chorus
