[Verse]

Em
if the fish swam out of the ocean
and grew legs and they started walking
C
and the apes climbed down from the trees
Am B7
and grew tall and they started talking
Em
and the stars fell out of the sky
and my tears rolled into the ocean
C
now i'm looking for a reason why
Am B7
you even set my world into motion
*******
[Chorus]
*******
Em
'cause if you're not really here
then the stars don't even matter
C
now i'm filled to the top with fear
Am B7
but it's all just a bunch of matter
Em
'cause if you're not really here
then i don't want to be either
C
i wanna be next to you
Am
black and gold
B7
black and gold
Em
black and gold
********
[Verse 2]
********
Em
i looked up into the night sky
and see a thousand eyes staring back
C
and all around these golden beacons
Am B7
i see nothing but black
Em
i feel a way of something beyond them
i don't see what i can feel
C
if vision is the only validation
Am B7
then most of my life isn't real
*******
[Chorus]
*******
Em
'cause if you're not really here
then the stars don't even matter
C
now i'm filled to the top with fear
