Jejune Stars
Bright Eyes
(The People's Key)
Verse 1
F#m A
Every new day is a gift; it's a song of redemption
F#m A
Any expression of love is a way to return
D A
To that place that I think of so often but now never mention
E F#m
The one the voice in the back of my head says that I don't deserve
Verse 2
F#m A
Come fire, come water, come karma, we're all in transition
F#m A
The Wheel of Becoming erases the physical mind
D A
Till all the remains is a staircase of misinformation
E F#m
And the code we inherit, the basis, the essence of life
Chorus
Bm E A D
So I go umbrella under my arm into the green of the radar
Bm E A
How did it get so dark in the day?
Bm E A D
It's just so bizarre, is it true what we're made of?
Bm E A
Why do I hide from the rain?
Verse 3
F#m A
Inside some cloudy nostalgia where there are no features
F#m A
We look at ourselves through a porthole, the passage of time
D A
See that sunny day that we snuck down, hid under the bleachers
E F#m
Kissed as the band marched, everything fell into line
Chorus
Bm E A D
So I go umbrella under my arm into the green of the radar
Bm E A
How did it get so dark in the day?
Bm E A D
It's just so bizarre, is it true what we're made of?
Bm E A
Why do I hide from the rain?
Bridge
F#m
Sure I had my doubts
D A
But I know it now
D
We are jejune stars
F#m
SO it starts again
D A
At our childhood's end
D
I'll die young at heart
Chorus
Bm E A D
So I go umbrella under my arm into the green of the radar
Bm E A
How did it get so dark in the day?
Bm E A D
It's just so bizarre, is it true what we're made of?
Bm E A
Why do I hide from the rain?
