I`ve been out walking for hours. I`ve got something on my mind.
How did we get here? Where are we going?
And why is life so hard?

I`ve tried to match the words to the place where the chords are played to give
a rough idea of where Joe plays them. But you can get it best if you play it!

| Wow! I can't believe that no one has written anything for this song yet. I think that Joe Satriani is probably the most talented guitarist ever and while he doesn't have the greatest voice and isn't a great lyracist; i think this song has really beautiful lyrics. To me the song is about the narrator looking at the evils of the world but with optimism that together we can make it a better place. | |

| " I've been out walking, For hours I got something on my mind How did we get here? Where are we going? Why is life so hard" i think about this stuff all the time, because these questions have no definite answers at all. Sure we can guess, but there's no way of knowing how right we are. I think Joe's saying he believes we can control the future, no matter how weird or impossible that sounds. If we are passionate and strong enough, we can mold and create to our desire. But if we don't make any attempt, the future just might control us. | |

| Personally, I dont think the lyrics to this song are that great, but the melody and the tone certainly makes up for it. Despite the lyrics being a little cliche, this is one of Satriani's best songs, in my opinion. And Im sure everyone can tell what it's about, as some have already stated it here. People like tommy, cheesemaestro, and Zs and Ys got it right. 1 | |
