Verse: G Gsus2 Gmaj7sus2 we spend our days just drifting away Am D7 G as cars go by like bugs upon the leaves G Gsus2 Gmaj7sus2 every train squirms on through the compost heaps Am D7 G G5 and the lonely souls are weeping in the eaves Gmaj7sus2 G G5 Gmaj7sus2 G Gsus2 Gmaj7sus2 when a girl who fell from above Am D7 G Gmaj7sus2 told you stories you never thought you'd hear G Gsus2 Gmaj7sus2 about how she fell straight through time Am D7 G Gsus2 G Gsus2 and the future world collapses on it's knees
Gmaj7sus2 Am but did you believe her words D7 did you heed her voice G Gsus2 Gmaj7sus2 did she say goodbye or steal away like a passing storm on earth Am did she make you smile D7 had you made your choice G Gsus2 Gmaj7sus2 did you tell her how you felt before loose time stitched over you Am Amadd9 D D7 and if you believed the girl with shining eyes D7 G Gsus2 Gmaj7sus2 maybe you were wise Gmaj7sus2 G Gsus2 Gmaj7sus2 G Gsus2 Gmaj7sus2 so i put her heart in my hands Am D7 G Gsus2 showed her colours that she'd never even known G Gsus2 Gmaj7sus2 and she placed a crown on my hair that day Am D7 G G5 G G5 within the knotted roots of trees she built a home Am and it wasn't as simple as we thought it'd be D D7 G Gsus2 G5 Gmaj7sus2 but she persisted and insisted to push through Am and though her eyes began to lose their gleam D D7 G Gsus2 G5 Gmaj7sus2 i held her close until the day was knew Gsus2 Gmaj7sus2 Am D D7 G Gsus2 Gmaj7sus2 Am D D7 G Gsus2 Gmaj7sus2 Am Am Amadd9 D D7 (cue the “ooohhs”) G Gsus2 Gmaj7sus2 and as her clock began to unwind Am D7 G and the threads of time unravelled to their ends Gsus2 Gmaj7sus2 that girl i knew who fell from above Am D7 G gave a painful smile and hoped we'd meet again G5 G G G5 G Gmaj7sus2 Am but did you believe her words D7 did you heed her voice G Gsus2 Gmaj7sus2 did she say goodbye or steal away like a passing storm on earth Am did she make you smile D7 had you made your choice G Gsus2 Gmaj7sus2 did you tell her how you felt before loose time stitched over you Am Amadd9 D D7 and if you believed the girl with shining eyes D7 G Gsus2 Gmaj7sus2 maybe you were wise G Gsus2 Gmaj7sus2 (x3) Am perhaps the threads of time will intertwine D D7 G G5 G G5 and when they do i'll see her in full bloom Am and if she flies through time again D D7 Gmaj7sus2 i'll catch her when she falls through G5 - 0235
