Maggie Rogers – James (Guitar)

G
Too young, too thoughtless," I said to myself

        C 
with idealistic visions all perched on the shelf

                D                              C
'cause I'm still hoping, waiting for you to come home.

    G
May your snow capped mountains carry you far.

        C
May they stand as protectors wherever you are.

        D                               C             
May you stay safe and happy all of your days.

  G
Oh James

  C
Oh James

   G
Maybe you're in love or hung up on another

     C
And maybe you found a far prettier lover

     D                                         C
And maybe you'll paint her a picture like you did for me

     G
You color your world with that Neverland smile

        C
but it goes dark in pieces every once in a while

          D                                            C
and on my birthday I told you, "Dont worry, there'll be other days."

  G
Oh James

  C
Oh James

Oooooooooo-ooooh-ooh  oooh

         G
And I'll always be happy if you choose to call

   C
or write me a letter saying all that you saw and

D                                                        C
how things have changed since our days there on Noxontown Pond

    G
No don't be a stranger, no don't go too far

                C
and though you love places that have lots of stars

      D                                             C
just know in the city, you'll always have a place to stay
