A            G
Whenever we hold each other
A   G
We hold each other
F#m                       G
There's a feeling that's gone
F#m                  G
Something has gone wrong
       A                   G
And I don't know how much longer I can
 A              G
Take it, house made of heart and
F#m                G
Break it, take my head in your hands and
F#m                          G
Shake it, in this near wild heaven
     Em    D
Not near enough

Chorus:
          A             Em
Living inside, living inside
(near wild heaven)
          D              A             Em
Living inside, living inside, living inside
(near wild heaven)

Whatever it takes, I'm giving
It's just a gift I'm given
Trying to live inside
Trying to move inside
And I always thought
that it would make me smarter
But it's only made me harder
My heart thrown open wide
In this near wild heaven
Not near enough

Chorus:
Near wild heaven
(Living inside, living inside, living inside)
(Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh) Near wild heaven
(Living inside, living inside, living inside)
Near wild heaven
(Living inside, living inside, lliving inside)
(Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh) Near wild heaven

A                G
 I'm holding my hands together
A                G
 I'm holding my feet together
A               G
 I'm holding myself together
F#m         G
   In this near wild heaven
     Em    D
Not near enough

Chorus:
(Ba-ba-ba-ba ba ba)
(Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh)
(Ba-ba-ba-ba ba ba) Near wild heaven
(Ba-ba-ba-ba ba ba)
(Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh) Near wild heaven
(Living inside, living inside, living inside)
(Ba-ba-ba-ba ba ba)
(Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh)
(Ba-ba-ba-ba ba ba) Near wild heaven
(Living inside, living inside, living inside)
(Ba-ba-ba-ba ba ba)
(Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh) Near wild heaven
(Living inside, living inside, living inside)
(Ba-ba-ba-ba ba ba)
(Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh)
(Ba-ba-ba-ba ba ba) Near wild heaven
(Living inside, living inside, living inside)
(Ba-ba-ba-ba ba ba)
(Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh) Near wild heaven
