B minorBm      D MajorD
  This quiet piece of heaven
B minorBm         D MajorD    A augmentedA
  Birds cut circles out of sky
B minorBm        D MajorD
  Below, boredom gets her bitch on
B minorBm        D MajorD        A augmentedA
  The trash, the treasure, white noise

(apart) Flown away like paper bags in the rain


Verse 2:

B minorBm      D MajorD
  And I tied all these memories
B minorBm         D MajorD
  Stacked like semi-precious jewels
B minorBm      D MajorD
  Painted by little forest fire
B minorBm         D MajorD    A augmentedA
  What were we but tapioca pearls?
