[Intro]
G C F C x2
[Verse]
G C G C
It’s in the color of the trees on the highway brilliant with dying
G C G C
It’s in the dust we’re breathing these days, in your whispers and sighing
F C G F C G
It’s in the longer shadows stretching into the falling night
F C G Am
It’s in the deep red sun that’s setting before we were ready
G C F C
blazing out of sight
G C F C
[Verse]
G C G C
In the spring when the ice was melted and the river ran high
G C G C
We went wading; soon we were swimming took an hour to dry
F C G F C G
Made a fire and laid out beside it saw a meteor that night
F C G Am
Turn the whole valley to daylight and it was gone
G C F C
blazing out of sight
G C F C
[Verse]
G C G C
I just stood there watching the phone ring until it was done
G C G C
You always take so much out of me I always blow up
F C G F C G
I know we gotta talk about it but I don’t wanna fight
F C G Am
So many words beneath the silence So many chances
G C F C
blazing out of sight
G C G C
How I love your dirty feet on my windshield and dash
G C G C
Open the window and tuck down the seat Lay your head back
[Instrumental Break]
G C x4
F C x3
Am
G C F C x2
[Verse]
G C G C
It’s in the deep unknowable blue of the silent night sky
G C G C
It’s not being able to talk to you and not knowing why
F C G F C G
Maybe knowing we’d never make it made it so right
F C G Am
Shooting stars burn the brightest we were meant to be
blazing out of sight
[Outro] (guitar/harp solos)
