Capo 1
For the verses you can either pluck the 4 middle strings (like he does), or just strum each chord once.
In the chorus, it's pretty much down 6, up once at the chord change.
Please let me know if anything needs to be changed!
Am G C
We crept from the room
Am G C F
The moonlight spilled down the hall
Am G C
And I tiptoed with you
Am G
Then we climbed out the window
Am G C
And there in the yard
Am G C F
Our nightclothes blowing in the breeze
Am G C
And you looked up at the sky
Am G
And said the moon would be ours
F C G F
And all this time I hear those words like bombs in the distance
C G F
And oh my mind, I can still smell the rain in the air
C
But time's gone by
G F
And I'm not the kid I was on that evening
C
And somewhere inside
G F
I hope you still see me just the way I was before I walked away
F C G
Am G C x5
Am G C
Mud on your dress
Am G C F
Blood stains on the knees of my pants
Am G C
And we went in search of the moon
Am G C F
'cause you said that you knew where it slept in the day
Am G C
So we gathered up our tools:
Am G C F
A sling-shot in case it ran for the sky
Am G C
And a blanket from your room, the one with no holes
Am G C F
So we could drag it all the way back home
F Am
And you said when we got it back
C
We would cut it in two
F Am
And we'd wear the hide so magnificent
G
And then I could control tides with you
F C G
And I still hear the way that you laughed
F
When you found I believed you
C G
And I could still feel you pull on my arm
F
When I was too afraid to go
C G F
And all this time I hear those words like bombs in the distance
C G F
And my, oh my, I can still smell the dirt on our hands
C
Cause in my head
G F
You're still alive, you're still alive
C
And I know that it's a lie
G F
But it's one I like, it's one I like
Am G C
Am G C F x4
