C Am G
Little bit of wisdom at the side of the road
Says be kind to your neighbours
C Am G F
Isn't as if it's something I didn't already know
Am G
But it's nice to be reminded
Gets me thinking about the woes of the world
Maybe I'll end world hunger
Some would say it's impossible
C Am G F Am G
But even impossible things, are still worth trying

Chorus
Fsus C Am G
There will be summer days too sweet to explain
Rain, when you're inside anyway
Flowers and wishes, true love and kisses
F Am G
And the intelligence to know when you see
F Am G
A little bit of wisdom, at the side of the road.
Fsus c Am G

Saw a girl at the side of the road
Looked like she had been crying
She said I'm waiting for this bus for so long and I'm getting old
She said Don't wanna look back at the things that I've done
Saying man, I coulda been something
Still, all my dreams are impossible
I say impossible things are still worth trying

Chorus

Bridge
(slow down)
Am G C Am G
She says that I don't believe you
With all this fighting I can't pick out the lies
I say that you gotta have faith
Everything bad will eventually end
And it looks like your bus has arrived




Here's an interview my friend Adam did with me a little while ago:

Rafe: I hail from Toronto Ontario.
I play a lot of shows and hopefully I will pursue music over the next period of time.
Adam: Who are some of your biggest influences?
Rafe: I have a lot of influences. I was always very into the old school guys like The Doors, Neil Young and Dylan were my favourites. Lately though, I've been really interested in some of the new guys. I love Panic! At the disco, (or panic at the disco as they recently changed their name) fall out boy, Rocket Summer, Something Corporate, Mute Math, Regina Spektor is one of my favourites. I found this other girl on her myspace, Jenny Owens Young who I'm really into. I love Tragically Hip but I wouldn't say I sound anything like them.
Adam: Who would you say you sound like?
Rafe: Well, I tell people, stylistically I sound like a mix between Green Day and Billy Joel. Obviously that's not really true, it just gets people interested. I get "Something Corporate" a lot and also rocket summer. Sometimes people say I sound like Barenaked Ladies mostly because I sing really fast at some points, like in "Love in a Little Grey Box". I also am heavily influenced by John Mayer and Jason Mraz.
Adam: Any songs your listening to a lot of these days?
Rafe: Ya, I really like "Love Song" by Sara Bareilles. That songs a blatant hit. Also, "Say" by John Mayer I love. Oh yeah, I was never a death cab for cutie fan but I love there new album. "I will possess your heart" is really a fantastic song.
Adam: What's the best live show you've ever been to.
Rafe: John Butler Trio followed by John Mayer.
Adam: Top 5 favourite books:
Rafe: 5: "The Game". 4: Golden Compass Series. 3: Narnia Series. 2: Ender's game series. 1: Hitchhiker's guide to the Galaxy series.
Adam: And movies?
Rafe: Hmm, not so easy. I'm not as in to movies. Memento I liked a lot. Not as many clear cut favourites. For TV shows I love South Park and Battlestar Gallactica.
Adam: Can you name some unknown artists that you really like?
Rafe: Sure, I just saw "The Midway State" last night who was awesome. Robyn Dell'unto, Darrelle London, Kat Fatale. David Borins. Peter J Fox, and tons more but I just can't think of them off the top of my head.
Adam: Thanks!
Rafe: NP. Thank yOU!

(Done)
