Verse 1:

A minorAm
I’ve starved my days

        C majorC
I’ve drowned my nights

          G+G
I’ve run campaigns against the light

   DmDm
I’ve been the liar

I’ve lit the fire

                   A minorAm
Died down, I’ve shrunk back from the fight

Chorus 1:

A minorAm
I’ve got this feelin'

    C majorC
This suspicion

This conviction

      G+G
Something’s shiftin'

           DmDm
And I’m liftin up my feet to take the step

     A minorAm C majorC
I’m ready now-!

  G+G                 DmDm
To let myself change colors with the leaves

              A minorAm  C majorC
Let the wind come shake me down-!

G+G            DmDm
Deliver me closer to the ground

N.C.
I made a promise to the moon.

Verse 2:

A minorAm
Now, outside this window

   C majorC
I see all the other boxes

      G+G
Box-shaped drivers

Box-shaped cars

   DmDm
Those little box-shaped lives that I could live

Chorus 2:

A minorAm
I know the shape of this room

C majorC                G+G
I know these walls, I know this tune

              DmDm
I know I’m stalling and I’m gonna turn the page

     A minorAm  C majorC
So show me how!

   G+G
I can weave my way into a tight cocoon

D MajorD             A minorAm  C majorC
Then let it push me inside out-!

      G+G                  D MajorD

I’ve made a promise to the moon!
