[A] On summer nights the stars fall a little slower and I don't know if I can catch them in time
So words delicately to the palm of my hand tell me
What am I worth?
Do you see words written in the air or is it just me forming pictures from nowhere?
I have funny little comic books taped to my hands and a brain within a brain has got a mind of its [E] own.
[A] Yeah
Kid
[F#m]
[A]
ships will take off.
[D]
It's the truth
The world [Am] will still turn without you
[A] But when your bones turn to earth
You [G#m] ask me what was I [D] worth?
I'll simply plant a flower above you
You [A] can watch it
Watch
[F#m]
[D] it go watch it go
[E] watch it go
[A]
[F#m]
[D] Watch it go watch it go watch [A] it go

[A] Summer nights my thoughts form a little bigger and I don't know how to arrange them or put them into words now
I'm leaving baffled teardrops in my hands and tell me I'm a man
[F#m] You think [A] aliens in outer space
[D] Think that they're [A] the only human race
[F#m] My mind's a house of magic [A] cards about to blow away.
Yeah, I'm just shooting.
I'm ready to grow.
Yeah
[F#m]
[A]
[Am] Rocket ships will take off
[E] Whether [Bm] you're in the room [C#m] or not
It's sad, [A] but it's the truth
World will still turn without you
When your bones turn to [F#m] earth
You ask me what [D] was I worth?
Simply plant a flower above [E] you and you can watch [A] it go
[F#m]
Watch [D] it go watch it go watch [A] [E] it go
[A]
[F#m]
Watch [D] it go watch it go watch [A] it go
[E] Would
[D]
[A] [C#m]
[D]
[A]
it be okay for me to say?
Okay, it's here then I'm far away
Now the trains not [E] leaving for [A] a while I packed my bags, but they have emptied themselves somehow
Thought of meaning something just makes my brain
twist and burn and fall down sideways
But my voice is a spark so let me sing it till the fire is so bright.
It's Stephanie
Rocket ships will take off
Whether you're in the room or not
It's sad, but it's the truth
Rockets turn without you
When your bones turn to [F#m] earth
