  I've been battling a broken heart

 Since I was eight years old and I thought that
DmDm    C majorC
God was a girl in my school huh
F minorFm            C majorC
  If we can wind up on a sandy beach
F minorFm             C majorC
  Breathin' air that only death can reach
FF               F minorFm
 And singing songs that only heaven leaves
   C majorC    D MajorD
It's okay with me
F minorFm             C majorC
  And God is wanting us to make believe
F minorFm             C majorC
  But knowing something is only a dream
  FF            F minorFm
Like  the absolutes and the in-between

Are out of line, sometimes, intertwined, behind
      C majorC                     N.C.
A augmentedA mind, in line, and fights that only fools are still trying to fight
