Verse:
C/GC/G Fmaj7/C
Leave the dishes in the sink don't overthink it
G+G C/GC/G Fmaj7/C
Close up the brokenhearted piano
C/GC/G C/EC/E Fmaj7/C
Join me on the porch if you can swing it
G+G C/GC/G E7E7
Let's dream an ocean in Ohio
A minorAm DmDm
You've been working so hard I can feel it
G+G C/GC/G E7E7
The clean and honest sweat upon your skin
A minorAm DmDm
I wanna see the rosy light on your face
G+G D MajorD G+G
Is this evening free or did it cost us everything
CHORUS:
C/GC/G
It's our favorite time of light
Fmaj7Fmaj7
Just before the day kisses the night
A minorAm
You see the redwing blackbirds fly
D7D7
The sun's a big ol' lazy eye
C/GC/G
And when the day is bending low
Fmaj7Fmaj7
And rolling fields begin to glow
A minorAm
Feels like we traveled all this way
D7D7
Just so I could hear you say
Fmaj7Fmaj7
It's our favorite

VERSE:
C/GC/G Fmaj7/C
Can you still hear those children singing?
G+G C/GC/G Fmaj7/C
Remember Jesus Loves Me This I Know
C/GC/G C/EC/E Fmaj7/C
Now there's just a lone blue heron flying
G+G C/GC/G
Dreaming an ocean in Ohio
CHORUS:
C/GC/G
It's our favorite time of light
FF
Just before the day kisses the night
A minorAm
You see the redwing blackbirds fly
D7D7
The sun's a big ol' lazy eye
C/GC/G
The moon is waiting in the wings
FF
Dreamin' up some midnight song to sing
A minorAm
And I know we'll be okay
D7D7
Everytime I hear you say
FF
It's our favorite
G+G C/GC/G FF G+G C/GC/G FF G+G
Our favorite time of light
VERSE:
C/GC/G Fmaj7/C
The dreams I've dreamed I give them all to you now
G+G C/GC/G Fmaj7/C
I'm not really sure what shape they're in
C/GC/G C/EC/E Fmaj7/C
Maybe they were all just too expensive
G+G C/GC/G E7E7
Maybe after dark we'll try again
A minorAm DmDm
So add this to your list of simple beauties
G+G C/GC/G E7E7
I know we're gonna miss it when we go
A minorAm DmDm
While barren fields undress their gentle mysteries
G+G C/GC/G
We dream an ocean in Ohio
CHORUS:
C/GC/G
It's our favorite time of light
FF
Just before the day kisses the night
A minorAm
You see the redwing blackbirds fly
D7D7
The sun's a big ol' lazy eye
C/GC/G
When they lay me down at last
FF
And this life is finally past
A minorAm
Just remember me this way
D7D7
And don't forget to say
FF
