Track listing
- "Uncle Mountain" – 4:03
- "Waste Time Segue" – 1:02
- "Oceans Apart" – 4:15
- "Chain" – 3:43
- "Backwards Blues" – 2:46
- "Summertime" – 4:01
- "Houses" – 3:14
- "Waste Time" – 4:15
- "Heaven" – 4:12

- Outtakes from this album include "Hands on You" and "Easy Whistle".
- Some CD pressings omit "Waste Time Segue" showing "Oceans Apart" as track 2 and thus totaling only 12 tracks. This led to confusion as to the song titles as each track number after "Uncle Mountain" is offset by one (i.e. "Sinatra" is listed as track 12 even though it is track 13).
