Emaj7
it's a nice day
sun's up, plummets through the windowpane
mum's up
food tumbles to my plate
Emaj7
and into my face
and into my face
and into my face
and into my face
Emaj7
she flies away
wonder where she goes when she goes away
wonder where she stops when she stops to play
Emaj7
is her feet in the grass
feet in the grass
feet in the grass
feet in the grass
Emaj7
is it warm on her black hair
warm on her black hair
warm on her black
warm on her black hair just like mine
G#m...........F#maj...Emaj7
i think it'd be cool if she came back
G#m...........F#maj...Emaj7
i think it'd be cool if she came back
Emaj7
it's a nice day
tip top of the couch when she goes away
warm in the sun as it spans the place
Emaj7
headfirst in my dream
headfirst in my dream
headfirst in my dream
headfirst in my dream
Emaj7
am I leaping or sleeping
leaping or sleeping
leaping or sleeping
leaping or sleeping
Emaj7
I'll find a friend
around any corner that I bend
leashed or unleashed I have time to spend
Emaj7
should I lay down or get lifted
lay down or get lifted
lay down or get lifted
lay down or get lifted
or lay down and whine
G#m...........F#maj...Emaj7
I think I'd be charmed in her arms
and dead to the world
G#m...........F#maj...Emaj7
I think I'd be charmed in her arms
and dead to the world
Emaj7
it's a nice day

Asus2
Out of the phone
Out of the phone
Out comes the news
B6(9,11)
Straight from the mouth of the mom
“hey I'm leaving soon
Asus2….. B6(9,11)…. Asus2
maybe 6 months from June”
Asus2
I see her eyes through the facetime
And her wide open smile
B6(9,11)
Takes me out to the porch
Where the daylight piles on
Asus2
I feel my lungs suck in a bit
Try and give her the strength of a friendship
Doesn’t even really seem like she needs it
I feel my tears fall as I sit
Try and give her the strength of a friendship
Doesn’t even really seem like she needs it
Emaj……………..F#min
Wondering just which of the cousins
G#min……………………F#min
Are feeling the same feeling that I am
Emaj……………..F#min
Wish I could do more for my father but we
Bmaj
stay in touch
Dmaj
Aooooo
Asus2
We stay in touch
Aooooo
We stay in touch
Aooooo
Believe it or not
Believe it or not
Believe it or not
But its true
Rain gave way to the sun
The day we buried you
Literally happened
I saw the season change in a day
I saw the leaves change in a day
I saw my reason on this plane
Change in a day
I can feel the way to her love
In every little thing I do
Its her attitude I bring along
When I’m recording this song
When I feel something wrong
I know how to make it right
Know how to be a light
Know how to drink a busch light
Googling how to press a flower
So it stays in sight each day, yellow rose
Always remembering I have the power
To stay in touch
Aooooo
To stay in touch
Aooooo
To stay in touch
Aooooo

she sends me a package of food
and high hopes

she talks about her friends
in a lovely note, in a lovely note

"wish you could be with them and me"

"wish you would believe in the things that lie in front of your eyes"

I wonder if this time he'll listen
F#m
time and space I'll go the distance

wonder if this thing finally begins
E(add9)…………..F#m………………..B
took you long enough son, but welcome to, to the light
E(add9)…………..F#m………………..B
I couldn't bear to leave you sink into, to the night
E(add9)…………..F#m………………..B
i think of you every day, and thank god you prayed to god
E(add9)…………..F#m………………..B
don't you feel better, in what you've found?
E(add9)…………..F#m………………..B
don't you feel better, in what you've found?
E(add9)…………..F#m………………..B
don't you feel better, in what you've found?
I'm thinking about the breeze we shared
as big as a condor, a condor
with you I am at ease, we pair
like the sun and the moon in the air
sun in the air, moon in the air
around the world I'll go wherever
time and space we'll share together
go along with this thing until it ends
the sun in my eyes each day I'm alive
that's you, brought me to the light
I'll stop breathing some day
and you will too, it's alright
I think of you every day, and thank god you pray to god
don't you ever let it get you down
don't you ever let it get you down
don't you ever let it get you down

I'd turn into a bird
leap from a tree
corkscrew upwards through a cloud

hmmmm

I may never stop
making songs
for the rest of my life
have you met this girl?
