[Verse]
G
If I forget everything I know then
Cadd9
tell me that I'm an astronaut and
D G
let me try to remember the stars.
G
Fourteen times I will try to say my
Cadd9
name but don't let me try it once
D G
again and everyone can call me like that.
[Chorus 1]
C
Asus4 G
My memories were much safer
(Did you want to be an astronaut?)
Em7/B C/G
When they were made of paper
(You remembering the stars)
Asus4 Dadd4
To catch them under folded wings
(under folded wings)
C
Asus4 G
Remember my creation
(I can make a paper aeroplane)
Em7/B C/G
Of paper aviation
(That will fly you to the moon)
Asus4 Dadd4
That got me almost to the moon.
(almost to the moon)
[Verse]
G
Collect my memories and put them in a
Cadd9
box, secure the latch and tell me not to
D G
look untill it's totally essential.
G
So I sit there silent waiting for the
Cadd9
sun and hope today will not become the
D G
one day that it simply doesn't come up.
C
[Chorus 2]
Asus4
A page full of holes I puched out
(I collected all my memories)
G Em7/B C/G
Letting the words fall through and out of sight
(I will put them in a box)
Asus4 Dadd4
Taking your thoughts away from here
(thoughts away from here)
C
Asus4 G
I was the dark you called out
(Then you folded into aeroplanes)
Em7/B C/G
You were the mark I rubbed out
(That we launched into the sky)
Asus4 Dadd4
That left me with an empty page.
(with an empty page)
