Chords with lyrics

INTRO:
Bb majorBb FF  DmDm FF
Bb majorBb DmDm Bb majorBb FF


VERSE I:

   Bb majorBb       FF
Gonna lay down in the grass

  DmDm     FF   Bb majorBb    DmDm     Bb majorBb  FF
And watch that acorn split in two, slowly take root

     Bb majorBb       FF     DmDm  FF
While the clock upon the wall makes idle boasts

    Bb majorBb     DmDm   Bb majorBb   FF
And my mind's out cruising silent coasts

VERSE II:

      Bb majorBb        FF     DmDm    FF
Though the ghosts of better days might twist my eyes

   Bb majorBb    DmDm         Bb majorBb     FF
Gonna stand my ground, watch that sapling rise

    BB         FF        DmDm       FF
Just as long as I ha??ve the strength, well, I'll raise that flag

     Bb majorBb  DmDm    Bb majorBb     FF
Like a wisp of cloud from a mountain crag


CHORUS:

      A minorAm
Now this is awkward

FF      DmDm      A minorAm Am/C
 I kept it bottled up too long


VERSE III:

      Bb majorBb      FF     DmDm   FF
Years like tiny drops of rain on a glassy lake

     Bb majorBb    DmDm   Bb majorBb     FF
Leaving naught but circles in their wake

     Bb majorBb      FF       DmDm     FF
Though we barely comprehend what the question is

   Bb majorBb   DmDm     Bb majorBb      FF
Only know for certain, the answer is yes

CHORUS:

      A minorAm
Now this is awkward

A minorAm
Really do no??t know where to begin


BRIDGE:

FF       DmDm      A minorAm
 I kept it bottled up too long

       Am/C
(I know that feeling too, yeah)

FF       DmDm         A minorAm
 Don't ask me where the time has gone

       Am/C
(I know that feeling too, yeah)

FF       DmDm         A minorAm
 Days I can't tell no right from wrong

       Am/C
(I know that feeling too, yeah)

FF     DmDm       A minorAm
 I kept it bottled up too long

          Am/C
(Know that feeling, know that feeling)

FF              DmDm
 Tell me about it, tell me about it, tell me about it

A minorAm       Am/C
(Like sunlight breaking through, yeah)

FF              DmDm
 Tell me about it, tell me about it, tell me about it

A minorAm      Am/C
(I know that feeling too)


OUTRO:

And watch that acorn split in two, slowly take root
