🎸 Intro:

Chord diagramDmDm Chord diagramC majorC


🎸 Verse 1:
Chord diagramDmDm
Here and there and gone again

Firefly juice on your skin
       Chord diagramC majorC
You're glowing like an atom bomb

This natural thing that you've undone
Chord diagramDmDm
Outgrew older sister's clothes again

Won't admit you're growing tall and thin
    Chord diagramC majorC
You like your body pulling at the seams

You're not prepared for what the future brings
Chord diagramDmDm
Curse words and empty cups

Cracked blacktop curling up
Chord diagramC majorC
Heatwave by midday
Chord diagramG+G
Heat lightning on a summer night
    Chord diagramDmDm
And I remember when you used to call

Holed up in the closet in the hall
Chord diagramC majorC
Scared you wouldn't live to forty-five

The same age as your father when he died
Chord diagramG+G
You'd say, "We need to talk
Chord diagramFF
Sneak out, meet me on your block"
Chord diagramA minorAm
I'd sit by you, silent on the curb
Chord diagramC majorC
What to say when there is not a word?
Chord diagramDmDm
Spell broke at daybreak

Light another candle on the cake
Chord diagramC majorC
Cartwheel and a broken wrist
                          (Chord diagramDmDm)
Skin scarred and sun-kissed
🎸 Interlude:
Chord diagramDmDm Chord diagramC majorC x3

🎸 Verse 2:
Chord diagramDmDm
When you told me 'bout your first time

The soccer player at the senior high
  Chord diagramC majorC
I felt my body crumple to the floor

Betrayal like I'd never felt before
Chord diagramDmDm
I thought back to many years ago

Chord diagramA augmentedA late-night promise on the telephone
     Chord diagramC majorC
We'd build a house of twigs and vines

Grow old together just to pass the time
Chord diagramG+G
Now there's only past and present day
  Chord diagramFF
I can't believe a word you say
    Chord diagramA minorAm
The future isn't worth its weight in gold
    Chord diagramC majorC             Chord diagramE minorEm             Chord diagramG+G
The future is a benevolent black hole
