Chords

[Intro] G D/F# Em C x2 [Verse 1]
         G
I hear beauty in things like
The neighbors return
          D/F#
To their love and pride

                   Em
Their day like a wicked ride

             C
But then to belong

           G
And their kids running by
Given riddles and tales
          D/F#
For their way to be

                    Em
Little buddies, the mystery

               C
Of just being around
[Pre-Chorus]
Am                 Em                   D/F#
All that I fear is that all that I have given you

       G                      G7                 C
Is a ship out to nowhere that wants to be out of control

Am                  Em                 D/F#
But I see the light in oh so many things out here

       G        C         D/F#        C            G
And a lifetime gently now sits on the stairs to my home
[Chorus]
      C       G
We're running out

    Am     Em
But moving on

         C            D/F#  G
Into the days of our grace returning
G D/F# Em C [Verse 2]
         G
And the dancer just turns

                                    D/F#
Until they spin fast enough for the biggest show

                      Em                   C
Take some pics of the afterglow then do it again

      G
I see stars in the sky

                                D/F#
And I wish they'd return to be in me now

                    Em
Make up for what I lack somehow

                    C
When it's all been too much
[Pre-Chorus]
Am                      Em               D/F#
All that I fear is that all that I have given you

      G                      G7                 C
Is a ship out to nowhere that wants to be out of control

Am                      Em         D/F#
But I see the light in oh so many things out here

       G            C         D/F#        C            G
And a lifetime so gently now sits on the stairs to my home
[Chorus]
       C      G
We're running out

    Am     Em
But moving on

         C            D/F#  G
Into the days of our grace returning
G D/F# Em C x2 [Bridge]
    Am     Em    D/F#
I'm curly to the bone

              G             C
But then you straighten me again

  Am     Em    D/F#
I carry you to bed

        G           C
Let the hours sweep away

             D/F#
Your day has been hard
[Verse 3]
       G
I will whisper to heal

                              D/F#
And not wake up the listening thoughts in me

                     Em
Their revealing dark poetry and this shadow

     C
They sell

         G
There is beauty out here

                                      D/F#
Like peculiar running styles some are wild

                      Em
And the breath on the other side of getting

C
Around
[Pre-Chorus]
Am                      Em              D/F#
All that I fear is that all that I have given you

      G                      G7                 C
The ship out to nowhere that wants to be out of control

Am                      Em        D/F#
But I see the light in oh so many things out here

       G            C         D/F#        C            G
And a lifetime so gently now sits on the stairs to my home
[Chorus]
       C      G
We're running out

    Am     Em
But moving on

         C            D/F#  G
Into the days of our grace returning
[Outro]
       C      G
We're running out

    Am     Em
But moving on

         C           D/F#  Gmaj7
Into the days of our grace returning
