Tom: D
Bm
there's a fly trapped between
G
the window and the screen
D A
does he know he only lives for the day
Bm
and i didn't mean to let him in
G
and i don't believe life is suffering
D A
but sometimes it sure looks that way
Bm
if i could give a piece of me
G
to bring your mind to me
D A
i'd tear myself limb for limb
Bm
but for now i stand between,
G
the marter and the priest
D A
'cause we know there's something sweet beneath the fear and trembling
[Chorus]
D
and honey i know
A
it's been a year of earthquakes
Bm
and your heart is full of canyons
G
and your hands have got the shakes
D
but one day you'll wake up
A
and you'll be glad to be awake
Bm
you'll see your joy was never fragile
G A
and your love was no mistake
[Verse 2]
Bm
and there's a dandelion sea
G
growing in the cracked concrete
D A
where the grounds got nothing to give
Bm
and it's a miracle to me
G
that where everything is ugly
D A
there's still room for green things to live
Bm
so until laughings is easy
A
were gonna laugh real hard
Bm A
and until we find a map we're gonna navigate by stars
Bm A
'til we got somewhere to go we’re gonna dance in parking lots
Bm
'cause the folks that see right past you
A
they've got half of what you've got
[Chorus]
D
and honey i know
A
it's been a year of earthquakes
Bm
and your heart is full of canyons
G
and your hands have got the shakes
D
but one day you'll wake up
A
and you'll be glad to be awake
Bm
you'll see your joy was never fragile
G A
and your love was no mistake
A G
your love was no mistake
