E
You fell in love with the sunshine
B
And you took a walk with a boy
A
And you spent half a year on the verge of tears
B
Just because nothing ever feels like it did before
E
So now I understand if you're bitter
B
Frankly sometimes I do feel the same
A B
It is amazing how in your own hometown the comfort and the pain
A
Well, they just grow
E
This is the field where I realized I loved you
A
And they just grow
E B A
This is the diner where we learned that people die before their time sometimes
Am
The impermanence of it all, don't you let it make you feel too very small
E
We saw new constellations with each observation
B
The night sky grows bigger it seems
A
But under our ceilings is much more revealing
B
You'll find what we found in our dreams
A E
Yes! I dreamt that all my old friends got together again
A E
And potluck is something somewhere that we've never been
B
And we said "Oh and it's so strange
A
The way that people in situations change
B
You got caught up in some crazy current
A
Now it seems as though we speak a completely different language
B A Am
But you'll always be as beautiful as the moment(3x) that we met"
E
And so I tried to write a song for my father
B
San Francisco bus rides that take way too long
A
He said "you're coming back home boy, Don't feel so alone
B
Love yourself and you will do no wrong."
A Am
But the interstate and life go on and on, And on and on and on and on
E
And I wrote my dad who likes blackbox recordings
B
Just to hear what people say
A
When they realize what's coming
B
About a second or so away
E
He said, "it starts with 'oh shit' and it ends with 'I'm sorry'"
B
And it plays in his head all the time
A
And I thought, ?oh and it's so crazy
B
The ways we all sabotage our very own peace of mind?
