Verse:
G
On summer nights the stars fall a little slower and
Em
I don't know if I can catch them in time
Cadd9
To sew words delicately to the palm of my hand, tell me
Dsus4
What am I worth?
G
Do you see words written in the air?
Em
Or is it just me forming pictures from nowhere?
Cadd9
I have funny little comic books taped to my hands and
Dsus4
A brain within a brain it's got a mind of it's own, yeah.

Interlude:
G Em Cadd9 Dsus4

Chorus:
G
Rocket ships will take off
Em
Whether you're in them or not
Cadd9
And it's sad, but it's the truth
Dsus4
The world would still turn without you
G
And when your bones turn to earth
Em
And you ask me, "What was I worth?"
Cadd9
I'll simply plant a flower above you
Dsus4                    G Em
And you can watch it grow

Cadd9                                                             Dsus4
And you can watch it grow, you can watch it grow, you can watch it grow.

Verse:
G
On summer nights my thoughts form a little vauger and
Em
I don't know how to arrange them or put them into words
Cadd9
Now I'm leaving bashful teardrops in my hands
Dsus4
So tell me I ain't a man
G
Do you think aliens in outer space
Em
Think that they're the only human race?
Cadd9
My mind's a house of magic cards about to blow away, yeah
Dsus4
I'm just-a-shootin' I'm not ready to grow yet

Interlude:
G Em Cadd9 Dsus4

Chorus:
G
Rocket ships will take off
Em
Whether you're in them or not
Cadd9
And it's sad, but it's the truth
Dsus4
The world would still turn without you
G
And when your bones turn to earth
Em
And you ask me, "What was I worth?"
Cadd9
I'll simply plant a flower above you
Dsus4                     G Em
And you can watch it grow

Cadd9                                                             Dsus4
And you can watch it grow, you can watch it grow, you can watch it grow

Bridge:
G
Would it be okay for me to stay?
Em
If okay is here, then I'm far away...
Cadd9
And the train's not leaving for a while
Dsus4
I packed my bags but they emptied themselves somehow
G
The thought of meaning something just makes my brain
Em
Twist and turn and fall down sideways
Cadd9
But my voice is a spark, so let me sing
Dsus4
'Till the fire's so bright, it's deafening

Chorus:
G
Rocket ships will take off
Em
Whether you're in them or not
Cadd9
And it's sad, but it's the truth
Dsus4
The world would still turn without you
G
And when your bones turn to earth
Em
And you ask me, "What was I worth?"
Cadd9
I'll simply plant a flower above you
Dsus4                     G Em
And you can watch it grow

And you can watch it grow, you can watch it grow, you can watch it grow.
