Key: C

Verse 1:
            C                            G
You put a stalk of onion grass in your mouth
                 F                       Am
We were heading out past where we were allowed
           C                     G
You put a hold on everything I knew
                 F                     Am
Deerlike I leapt into the aim of the kudzu



         C                    G
We were tied in our looking amazed by everything
     F                       Am
Each other's witness to the truth
              C
We wrote the field guide to the left-behind
          G                              F
We wore beer tab rings and wild violet crowns
                          Am
Made a bed of the moss on the ground

Chorus:
     C G    F  Am
I beli-ieve
     C G    F  Am
I beli-ieve


Verse 2:
          C
We picked onion grass
                  G
Thought we could live off it
                  F
Hershey wrappers fell from our pockets
            Am
We lined up coke can targets
   C                           G
I licked your spoon to get closer to you
                      F
I felt like Huck Finn   in a house dress
                Am
You added more weights to the bench press


Verse 3:
    C
Oh
I'd never be your wife
     G
And you'd stomp on the world of our minds
    F                    Am
I hear you in the static of night
              C
Behind the clearing, a country
    G
We named it
I live in it
      F
Up ahead
I don't know
       Am            C
I chew onion grass alone


Chorus:
     C G    F  Am
I beli-ieve
     C G    F  Am
I beli-ieve
     C G F    Am
I beli-i-ieve
