‘Til it moved past the
D#m
light
B F# C#
Forest and the fields,
F#
A golden halo set
D#m7 D#m
Reflected on the trees
[Verse 2]
B F#
The water froze up
C#
On the roof of our house
B F#
And rolled down the sides
And the smooth, frigid
C#
spikes
F#
Just reached for the ground
But the only way to get
down there
D#m
Would cause their body
C# F#
to break
[Verse 3]
B F# C#
The moon smiled down on us
F#
To tell us it’s okay,
D#m
But he’s far enough away
B F# C#
That the only things he can
F#
Make out are the clouds,
The mountains, and the
D#m
lakes
B F# C#
How naïve the sky,
F#
Paints itself so bright
D#m
Not knowing all the while
B F# C#
We crawled out of the cave
F#
We pulled out all its guts
To see what we could
D#m D#m7
make

B F#
You told me you see
D#m C#
The same thing every night
B F#
You toss and you turn
D#m C#
As you’re sinking beneath
B
And you say you’re scared
to death
F#
Of what is gonna happen
D#m C#
If you stay too long
B
Well I wait by your side,
F# C#
Stay with you all night,
B F#
But your eyes never close
D#m C#
And you shake and you scream
B F#
And you gasp for air
D#m F#
As you’re falling asleep
B F#
And I grab you so hard
D#m F#
That I bruise both your arms
B F#
And the sun is the sun,
D#m
And the weeds are just
C# B#
weeds
