                     Think about the place where you live, wonder why you haven't before

        Carry a compass to help you a - long
        Your feet are going to be on the ground
        Your head is there to move you around

                     Stand in the place where you live (now face North)
                     Think about direction, wonder why you haven't
                     Now stand in the place where you work (now face West)
                     Think about the place where you live, wonder why you haven't before

        Your feet are going to be on the ground
        Your head is there to move you around
        If wishes were trees, the trees would be falling
        Listen to reason, season is calling

                     Stand in the place where you live (now face North)
                     Think about direction, wonder why you haven't
                     Now stand in the place where you work (now face West)
                     Think about the place where you live, wonder why you haven't before
                                       *Solo*   (verse)

        If wishes were trees, the trees would be falling
        Listen to reason, reason is calling
        Your feet are going to be on the ground
        Your head is there to move you around

                     So stand (stand) - (now face North)
                     Think about direction, wonder why you haven't
                     Now stand (stand) - (now face West)
                     Think about the place where you live, wonder why you haven't

                     F#                B2                     C#2
                     Stand in the place where you live (now face North)
                     Think about direction, wonder why you haven't
                     Now stand in the place where you work (now face West)
                     Think about the place where you live, wonder why you haven't before
