Last night the stars never went down
I spent thirteen long hours on [Db] a plane
[Ab] And here we are now
Nervous as [Fm] schoolgirls, skittish as horses
[Bb] Awkward as prom dates, [Eb] and it should be familiar
[Fm] This once was my country, before [Bb] the coming of [Db] the sea
[Ab] Hey Tom, did your [Fm] old pony [Eb] ever find a way [Db] back home?
[Eb]
[Ab] Well the streets of our past, we gambled away
When hours and days were still [Db] free
On the roof of your car, we studied the night sky
[Fm] With both our dolls, [Bb] lying in wait
[Eb] And I still feel the downpour [Fm] of a season so sacred
You [Bb] take my bags, pull up [Db] the car
[Ab]
Hey Tom, looks [Eb] like your [Fm] pony [Eb] really made it [Db] pretty far
[Eb] And two feathers [Db] for the plans
And three daisies [Ab] for the memories
A [Cm] penny for [Db] the dust and for [Ab] the light
[Eb] Four stitches [Db] for the lawns
Five glasses [Ab] for the riches
[Cm] One breath for [Db] the crumbling of [Ab] the sky
[Eb]
[Ab] Before the last snow, two synchronized blossoms
Waiting for summer [Db] to come
The
[Ab] world was lit up then
And the fairgrounds were shining [Fm] your hand on my shoulder
[Bb] That was enough, [Eb] and my heart was so calm then
[Fm] In the roundness of waiting, [F] love was innocent [Db] and slow
[Ab]
Hey Tom, do you think [Fm] our ponies will ever find a [Db] way back home?
[Eb] [Ab] And two feathers [Db] for the plans
And three daisies [Ab] for the memories
A
[Cm] penny for [Db] the dust and for [Ab] the light
[Eb] Four stitches [Db] for the lawns
Five glasses [Ab] for the riches
[Cm] One breath for [Db] the crumbling [Ab] of the sky
[Eb] Five bubbles [Db] for the glory
And a sonnet [Ab] for salvation
[Cm] Some water for [Db] the cracks and a pillow [Ab] for the [Eb] fall
One [Db] opus for the joy
Two [Ab] shards for forgiveness
A [Cm] secret [Db] stairwell for remembering
And a moment [Eb] for [Ab] a song
I spent thirteen long hours on [Db] a plane
[Ab] And here we are now
Nervous as [Fm] schoolgirls, skittish as horses
[Bb] Awkward as prom dates, [Eb] and it should be familiar
[Fm] This once was my country, before [Bb] the coming of [Db] the sea
