        A4/E                                    D4/G
I drove up to the city at night and found the place
                                       A4/E
Where you grew up and then where you stayed
                                    D4/G
And we walked around and stayed up late
                               A4/E
under city lights,I spent the night
                                        D4/G
next to you in the house where you grew up
                                A4/E
Next to you I miraculously woke up
                                  D4
In your parents' house I laid in bed with you

        A4/E               D4/G
I went back to feel alone there
        A4/E             D4/G
I went back to wipe it clean
            A4/E                                D4/G
I took the lights and radio towers out of my dreams

       A4/E                                             D4/G
And we went all the way up to the small town where I'm from
                                              A4/E
With foggy air and the wind and the mountain top
                                  D4/G
And we clung to rocks and looked off
                                                       A4/E
and you held my hand ,You almost got to start feeling me
                             D4/G
I finally felt like I was breathing free
       A4/E                                              D4/G
Under swaying trees we fell asleep and we had the same dream
                                                A4/E
The stars were bright, we dream the same every night
                               D4/G
On my island home I spent some time with you

        A4/E          D4/G
I went back to feel alone there
        A4/E            D4/G
I went back there by myself
       A4/E                        D4/G
I gave up on everything that we'd felt

             A4/E                                       D4/G
We found a precious place in the sand right out in the wind
                                                   A4/E
And we laid under a blanket and heard the furious sound
                                                         D4/G
The roar of waves, the pounding surf, two bodies on the earth
                                                A4/E        D4/G
It was intense just getting to be there next to you
                   A4/E                            D4/G
And you trying to get me then, and I was happy to let you in

        A4/E              D4/G
I went back and wished I hadn't
        A4/E             D4/G
I went back and felt regret
               A4/E               D4/G     A4/E  D4/G
I went to the beach and I stared west

       A4/E                                              D4/G
Every night when the sun went down in the town where we lived
                                            A4/E
The empty streets were lit up by reflected light
                                             D4/G
 from a distant sun. Bouncing off a glowing ball of rock
                          A4/E                D4/G
 and we just laid on the roof And watched
     A4/E                                                  D4/G
the moon, the moon, the blue light of the moon. We didn't talk
                            A4/E
and silently we both felt powerful
                         D4/G
And, like the moon, my chest was full
                 A4/E                                          D4/G
'cause we both knew We're just floating in space over molten rock
                                                     A4/E
And we felt safe and we discovered that our skin is soft
                                     D4/G
There's nothing left except certain death
                                                A4/E            D4/G
And that was comforting at night out under the moon

       A4/E                  D4/G
I went out last night to forget that
       A4/E               D4/G
I went out and stared it down
        A4/E                  D4/G
But the moon just stared back at me
             A4/E                           D4/G          A4/E
And in it's light I saw my two feet on the ground
