       A#  F  Gm  F Gm A#   F/A
In the cul de sac,     so smooth
   Gm
I look down
              D#  F
Be less sure, sir
              A#
And take your rest

It's been much too long
since we drifted in song
Lay it down wet in
this hideaway

D#
I travelled far
Cm
Near a star
Dm
And met Palomar
D#
And we don't care
Cm
Who you know
Dm
It's what you are
Cm             F
And who you are

And when they all go home,
down the cobblestones
You can double back (this is it)
to a cul de sac

Oh, I travelled far, the nearest star
And Mount Palomar, Palomar, Palomar, Palomar
And we don't care just who d'you
know who d'you know
And who you really are, really are

And when they all all go home,
down the cobblestones
You will double back
to a cul de sac

You know, you know you will
You will, oh, will double back
And not very far to a cul de sac
You, you, you will double back to a cul de sac
You know, you know it's not very far away, no, no
It's just a cul de sac
And you know, and you know, and you know
It's not very very far away, no
It's just a cul de sac, donn, donn, donn...
You're not very far away, no
Oh, it's not, it's not very far away
It's not as far as a country mile
(You got it)
It's just a cul de sac
