AND THERE I WILL STAY

C F C
C F
One thing about a life
C Am
It's an endless straight line
C F
The dreams I once had
C Am
They've taken me for a ride
F G
Just show me the way to leave
C Em Am
That's all I need
F G
Where I don't notice anything
C Em Am
That's where I will be
F G
Life doesn't come to me now
C Em Am
And I wouldn't want it to

There's nothing I'd like to do
F G C Em Am
Goals disrupt the past.
C F C

There's nothing I realize
F C
There's no one I despise
C F C
Nothing to hide behind
G C
This time.
Then just repeat this last part but in the original version the first and second
verses are inverted in de repetition. That's all for now. I believe this is right,
it sounds to me, but this is the first tab I do, for any commentaries, corrections,
doubts or whatever just mail me to: italia_alfredo@hotmail.com

i love this song...for me it means how sometimes having goals in you mind dont let you live the moment. in interviews john has said that what makes him a great artist is the fact that he lives each moment as a very special moment and that makes the moment a very good one, gaining experience, and this makes goals come to ones hands. 1

one of his beat songs ever with the best lyrics ever heard in all of all life. i'm not too sure about the meaning but i thinkit might have something to do with someone who has given up inlife and knows the dreams they once had and still thinks of them sometimes but one of those dreams were to die so that way the dreams disurpt the past

I could truly just listen to this song all day. One of my favourites. I think the beauty of many of John's songs is that you can interpret them in your own personal way. So, here I go... To me, this song is about someone who had lost their way in life, and feel they have no purpose no more. For me personally, the line 'goals disrupt the past' can be interpreted as goals and dreams you have and aim for, but cannot achieve, because of things that have happened in the past to you and things you have said/done. Therefore, always longing for a chance to fufil your goals disrupts the natural order of your past simply being your past, because you cannot forget the things that have stopped you from being happy. You live with regrets, and you live constantly thinking about the past. The line 'ghosts disrupt the past' can be applied to the same idea, but with ghosts representing memories or even people you cannot forget. They disrupt your life. The past cannot be called 'the past' because you are still re-living it. Nothing I realize No one I despise Nothing to hide behind You have not suddenly realised this about yourself. You have simply never confronted yourself with it. You do not hate anyone or blame anyone for how you feel. You no longer have excuses or reasons to hide behind. Personally, this song makes me confront my life so far when I feel lost or upset. Although it is thought-provoking and sad, it makes me feel uplifted, especially towards the end. A simple song with so many interpretations. xxx

to be honest i havent listened to this song in a while but i have heard a few other people thinking about the same kind of stuff in their music espically pearl jam and patti smith. i thin that what seren has said is amazing and there are a lot more interpetations to be given to this song. i'll have to look into it more and see what i can find in it
