HERE WE ARE
WORDS & MUSIC: Earl P. Reinhalter
A
I. I see us in another town
E
in another state,
E7
with heat in every room
A
and food on our plates,
paper to draw on,
D
a few good books to read,
Bm
not a life o' leisure,
E
only what we need:
F#m E D
a magic road that leads afar.
F#m E A
there we are, there we are.
A
II. now the quarter moon is rising
E
in the darkness on the Nile.
E7
when you see the crescent sideways,
A
it really is a smile.
the moon is over Austin,
D
it's over Tennessee,
Bm
they see it in Australia,
E
it's over you and me,
F#m E D
a magic lantern from afar.
F#m E A
here we are, here we are.
F#m E
CHORUS A: here we are, here we are.
F#m E A
ooooh----
A
III. now the moving van is leaving,
E
symbol of my fall from grace.
E7
you think you will be happy
A
in another place.
but when you're worse off than ever
D
with your stupid, wealthy beau,
Bm
I'll resist temptations
E
to say I told you so.
F#m E D
you can't leave old blues behind
F#m E A
when it's in your mind, in your mind.
F#m E
CHORUS B: now here I am, and there you are.
F#m E A
ooooh----
