A
There was a man back in '95

Whose heart ran out of summers
                      F#m
But before he died, I asked him

Wait, what's the sense in life
      D            E
Come over me, Come over me
A
He said,

Son why you got to sing that tune

Catch a Dylan song or some eclipse of the moon
          F#m
Let an angel swing and make you swoon
      D                   E
Then you will see... You will see

         D
Then he said,

You and I...

Picked up my kid from school today

Did you learn anything cause in the world today
             F#m
You can't live in a castle far away
    D                E
Now talk to me, come talk to me

He said,
A
Dad I'm big but we're smaller than small

In the scheme of things, well we're nothing at all
                 F#m
Still  every mother's child sings a lonely song
   D                  E
So play with me, come play with me
          D
And Hey Dad

D         E                A                 F#m
There are secrets that we still have left to find
D               E                  A             G
There have been mysteries from the beginning of time
D         E                 A              F#
There are answers we're not wise enough to see

He said... You looking for a clue I Love You free...

A
The batter swings and the summer flies

As I look into my angel's eyes
  F#m                             D
A song plays on while the moon is hiding over me
                E
Something comes over me
A
I guess we're big and I guess we're small

If you think about it man you know we got it all
            F#m
Cause we're all we got on this bouncing ball
       D
And I love you free
