Bm              C#     D
Sleeping in the beetle bug

       B5  A5  F#5    A5 G   Em    D
With a hundred pounds of air in my heart

      F#5   E5   D5  E5 F#5 D5   G G/F#    Bm
Don't think that I'm able               to sympathize

    C#         D*     G* GM7 G6   G* GM7 G6   G* GM7 G6   G* GM7 G6
I'm happier to see it gone
[Verse]
Bm        C#        D
Floating above your house

       B5  A5  F#5  A5  G        Em      D
Like a penguin dropping cherries from my mouth

F#5 E5  D5  E5 F#5 D5   G G/F#    Bm
Tapping the walnuts and       the shadows

         C#               D*         A5
Out of a dreaming pair of brown-eyed ghosts
[Chorus]
                F5      Bm       D
In each of your eyes, I saw it's spring

      Bm    Gm
Where every mouth wakes up

A5               F5    Bm       D           A
To a smile and a yawn, grass is long and laughs
CM/m A When the wind jumps through it [Verse]
             Bm                C#           D
It must have started with that stick in the mud

B5   A5      F#5 A5 G   Em     D
That there's where  clouds are born

       F#5   E5 D5 E5    F#5  D5 G G/F# Bm
Clouds can't stay  where they are       born

      C#           D*       G* GM7 G6   G* GM7 G6   G* GM7 G6   G* GM7 G6
Winds push them so far from home
[Verse]
    Bm       C#        D
The sound of your laughter

   B5 A5  F#5 A5 G Em  D
Tiptoeing across   the floor

          F#5 E5 D5 E5 F#5 D5 G G/F# Bm
Makes the deepest   of     red       umbrellas

C#        D*       A5
Able to inflate my smile
[Chorus]
                F5      Bm       D
In each of your eyes, I saw it's spring

      Bm    Gm
Where every mouth wakes up

A5               F5    Bm       D           A
To a smile and a yawn, grass is long and laughs
