[Verse]
G On summer nights the stars fall a little slower and Em I don't know if I can catch them in time Cadd9 To sew words delicately to the palm of my hand, tell me Dsus4 What am I worth? G Do you see words written in the air? Em Or is it just me forming pictures from nowhere? Cadd9 I have funny little comic books taped to my hands and Dsus4 A brain within a brain it's got a mind of it's own, yeah.
[Interlude]
G Em Cadd9 Dsus4
[Chorus]
G Rocket ships will take off Em Whether you're in them or not Cadd9 And it's sad, but it's the truth Dsus4 The world would still turn without you G And when your bones turn to earth Em And you ask me, "What was I worth?" Cadd9 I'll simply plant a flower above you Dsus4 G Em And you can watch it grow Cadd9 Dsus4 G Em And you can watch it grow, you can watch it grow, you can watch it grow. Cadd9 Dsus4 And you can watch it grow, you can watch it grow, you can watch it grow.
[Verse]
G On summer nights my thoughts form a little vauger and Em I don't know how to arrange them or put them into words Cadd9 Now I'm leaving bashful teardrops in my hands Dsus4 So tell me I am a man G Do you think aliens in outer space Em Think that they're the only human race? Cadd9 My mind's a house of magic cards about to blow away, yeah Dsus4 I'm just a shoot and I'm not ready to grow yet
[Interlude]
G Em Cadd9 Dsus4
[Chorus]
G Rocket ships will take off Em Whether you're in them or not Cadd9 And it's sad, but it's the truth Dsus4 The world would still turn without you G And when your bones turn to earth Em And you ask me, "What was I worth?" Cadd9 I'll simply plant a flower above you Dsus4 G Em And you can watch it grow Cadd9 Dsus4 G Em And you can watch it grow, you can watch it grow, you can watch it grow. Cadd9 Dsus4 And you can watch it grow, you can watch it grow, you can watch it grow.
[Bridge]
G Would it be okay for me to stay? Em If okay is here, then I'm far away... Cadd9 And the train's not leaving for a while Dsus4 I packed my bags but they emptied themselves somehow G The thought of meaning something just makes my brain Em Twist, invert, and fall down sideways Cadd9 But my voice is a spark, so let me sing Dsus4 'Till the fire's so bright, it's deafening
[Chorus]
G Rocket ships will take off Em Whether you're in them or not Cadd9 And it's sad, but it's the truth Dsus4 The world would still turn without you G And when your bones turn to earth Em And you ask me, "What was I worth?" Cadd9 I'll simply plant a flower above you Dsus4 G Em And you can watch it grow Cadd9 Dsus4 G Em And you can watch it grow, you can watch it grow, you can watch it grow. Cadd9 Dsus4 G And you can watch it grow, you can watch it grow, you can watch it grow.
