C/G Cmaj9 Am
My dad is a miracle and so's my mom
Dm C/G G
They fly over the blue
Am
They finish their dinner and then they take one another's hands
Dm C/G G
And off they go to find a broader point of view
C/G Cmaj9 Am
For it's a give and take beyond the ordinary
Dm C/G G
What with all the cats and kids that they've loved
F Am Dm G
And they, ooh, will not be alone
C/G Cmaj9 Am
Well, my friends give me purple flowers and orange tea
Dm C/G G
On goose-down spilling quilts and turquoise chairs
Am
We greet each other in a wild profusion of words
Dm C/G G
Wave farewell amidst the wonderment of air
C/G Cmaj9 Am
In the laughing times we know that we are lucky
Dm C/G G
And in the quiet times we know that we are blessed
F Am Dm G
And we, ooh, will not be alone
C/G Cmaj9 Am
Well, the light that stopped the night felt like forgiveness to you
Dm C/G G
But as the garbage trucks came bustling through their rounds
Am
You stared at the pictures on your walls and all the postcards from your friends
Dm C/G G
As you heard the birds and old familiar sounds
C/G Cmaj9 Am
That's when you knew this world can't be saved, only discovered
Dm C/G G
And you knew things could be different than before
F Am Dm G C/G Cmaj9 Am Dm G C/G
And now you, ooh, will not be alone anymore______
