Biography:
Starflyer 59 is an indie rock band from Riverside, CA founded in 1993 by Jason Martin, brother of Ronnie Martin of Joy Electric. While Martin has written all of Starflyer 59's songs, the band has included a number of different musicians over the years, including Jeff Cloud, Richard Swift, Frank Lenz and Josh Dooley.
Starflyer 59 was signed to Tooth & Nail Records, their original and current label, after Jason Martin gave a demo to Brandon Ebel when the two met at a music festival in 1993.

Hello! My name is Christina and I found these chords online, but they were set to lyrics that were wrong.
I changed the lyrics so they'd be correct. I DO NOT take credit for the chords, which were done by

Now the obvious problem with playing this song on the guitar is that it was
written for the piano--so while I'm aware that this album is played with the
guitar tuned down half a step, I'm writing this one out as if it weren't, to
allow piano players to just look at the chords and play as written without
transcribing in their heads.
So guitar players who recognize that these chords would sound better
transcribed up a half step and played with a guitar tuned down a half step,
feel free.
