Where are we running to?

That you only saw the baaaaaack of my head
Verse 2: [use verse 1 chords]
Climb through the timbers, and I'll breathe the dust of
Cosmos and wild rosebud
Thunder from unknown, phosphorous white glow
Sabre-tooth bones in the dusk
Chorus 2: [use chorus 1 chords]
Remember me to Roxianne (You know she's still lovely)
Tell her I was on the move (Last time you saw me)
That you only saw the back of my head
then, [repeat chorus 1x]
Interlude: [use verse 1 chords for interlude]
Outro verse: [use verse 1 chords]
Southern pacific, take me to meet
Whatever is hunting for me
This is right except one change I'd make. On the word "baaaaaack", the 2nd chord is Ab (not E+5).
I mean E augmented (B\E+) works too. I just like the sound of the clean Ab to transition to the C#m.
