Thumbing My Way
Pearl Jam Pearl Jam
[Intro] / A7sus4 (x2) [Verse] I have not been home since you left long ago I’m thumbing my way back to he____aven Counting steps walking backwards on the road I’m counting my way back to he_____aven [Chorus] I can’t be free with what’s locked inside of me If there was a key you took it in your hand There’s no wrong or right but I’m sure there’s good and bad The questions linger overhead [Verse] No matter how cold the winter there’s a springtime ahead I’m thumbing my way back to he____aven I wish that I could hold you I wish that I had Thinking ’bout heaven [Bridge] I let go of a rope thinking that’s what held me back And in time I’ve realized it’s now wrapped around my neck I can’t see what’s next from this lonely overpass Hang my head and count my steps as another car goes past [Chorus] All the rusted signs we ignore throughout our lives Choosing the shiny ones instead I turned my back now there’s no turning back [Verse] No matter how cold the winter there’s a springtime ahead I smile but who am I ki____dding? I’m just walking the mile every once in a while I’ll get a ride I’m thumbing my way back to he____aven [Outro] thumbing my way back to he____aven I’m thumbing my way back to he____aven
