[A] [G#]
[E] [G#]
[F] I'm not sure really because it was you [D#] know right when I was really really down
[G]
[Am] I wrote it on a train [G#] coming back from
[Gm] Celsie [G] where my folks live.
[F] What, you had your guitar with [A] you?
No, I wrote the lyrics, [C] well most of the lyrics anyway.
How come you [F] were down, can you remember?
I don't know, it just [G#] came from one of my very doubtful stages.
[D#] What's going to happen tomorrow [Cm] and will I be alright?
[F#] [Gm]
[G#]
[Gm] You think the lyrics mirror that [C] confusion?
[G#] No, I don't think the lyrics are confusing [A] at all.
They're quite come driving.
[C#]
[A]
No, I think it's pretty obvious what the song's [D#] about you know.
All the doubts we have, [E]
[A#] you caught quite [D#] well.
I like the images in it.
[G#] You know, through the windows [G] of a train I caught reflections of a paper cup
[G#] hanging small [G] in the pale blue sky, never knowing which way's up.
I like all those images.
[C#m] You got your, [G] you wanna play it?
[E]
Sure, why not.
[C#m]
[G#m] [E]
Autumn blew its [C#m] leaves at me,
[G#m] [C#m]
[E] drivin' [A] low as I walk.
[E]
Summer long is [C#m] close away,
[G#m] barely stopping with my
[C#m] [G#m] thoughts.
[A]
[F#m] Slippery, smearing [G#m] cheeks and face.
[F#m] [G#m] You [F#m] have to [G#m] wonder,
[F#m]
[C#m] will I [E]
last?
[G#m]
Gross.
[A] [G#m] Through the windows of a train,
[A] [G#m] I caught [A] reflections of a paper [G#m] cup
[E] hanging small in the pale [C#m] blue [G#m] sky,
[A] [E]
never knowing [C#m] which way's [E]
up.
[F#]
Lost across,
[B]
used to be found.
[F#m] I have to wonder,
[B]
[F#m] will I be able?
[E]
[G#m] [E]
Autumn blew its [C#m] leaves at
[E] me,
[C#m]
[E] threatening winter as I walk.
Summer always [C#] goes so quick,
[G#m]
[E] barely stopping like my thoughts.
[F#m] Slipping, spinning, [G#m] change so [F#m] fast.
I have to wonder, [G#m]
[F#m] [C#m] will I last?
[E]
Through the [C#m] windows of a [E]
train,
I caught [A] reflections of a paper [E]
cup
hanging small in the pale blue sky,
[G#m]
[E] never knowing which way's up.
[F#m] Across the clouds,
used to be [B] found.
[F#m] I have to [G#m] wonder,
[F#m] will [E] I be around?
[C#m] As my anger [F#m]
shouts,
and my whole self down,
[C#m] so sadness
[F#m] creeps
into my
[C#m] dreams.
When you're scared of [F#m] living,
but afraid to die,
[A] I get scared of giving,
and I [B] must find the faith [E] to beat it up.
[C#m]
[E] Must [A]
[E] be a mill that's rushing [A]
by,
[E]
time just [C#m] lingers on the
[E] way,
bristling through my open fears.
Wonder what [A] it's come to [E]
bring.
[F#m]
Across the clouds,
used to be found.
I have to wonder,
[A] will I [E] be around?
[C#m]
[E] [A] [E]
[A] [E]
Running hot, [F#m] running hot,
I [B] catch the sail at evening [E] time.
[A]
[E] Running hot, running hot,
I catch [C#] the sail at evening [E] time.
[A] [E]
Running hot, running [F#m] hot,
I catch the sail at evening time.
