Six acres of concrete wasteland,

One sunflower standing tall.

Em                                           G            A
I didn't know your name, I didn't know your fame, I just liked you, that's all
[Instrumental] D F#m Em G A [Verse 2]
D                                    F#m
I can not buy you diamond rings, for Christ sake! I can barely sing

I didn't mean for this to happen but the greatest things happen 

Em                     G
By accident, like the apple... on Issac's head. 
[Chorus]
Bm               D
We sat for hours, you measured your thumb against mine

G
Electricity, shooting down my spine.

A                 Bm                 D
We sat for hours, we waited 'til the sun went down

G                       A
Alighted the night bus, nowhere near this town...
[Instrumental] D F#m Em G A [Verse 3]

We talked historys and pasts, 

           Em
I let you read the second draft,

Converging through the afternoon.

We sat for hours, you measured your thumb against mine

Electricity, shooting down my spine.

A                 Bm                D

A burning beacon, brilliant through the fog.

To look that good should not be allowed, our local movie star. 

D                           F#m
The girls look on in envy, you guys look on in envy

Be la de da de da da da de dum

Alighted the night bus, nowhere near this town...
