C       F                           C 
Fingers extend, and find the lonely pen 
                           F 
Who has no thoughts of his own 
C             F                        C 
Filling pages with, the sounds of your lips 
                             F 
As they run off the desk and fill up the room 


Am            F                        C 
You let out a cry, with your hand held high 
                                              D 
In the window-blue, laughter-filled, teardrop sky 
Am                  F                      C 
The clouds start to speak, I remember them each 
                                  D 
Every raindrop that fell from its place and slipped down your cheek 


C          F                    C 
Lips buzz along, humming towards home 
                 F 
Your breath is a love song 
C          F                              C 
Marching beside, the ins and outs of your sigh 
                      F 
Pushing and pulling in perfect time 

Am                        F                           C 
Breathing clouds from our lips, and we're starting to kiss 
                 D 
Hallelujah! Hallelujah! 
Am              F                          C 
The rain falls around, our doubts learn to drown 
                 D 
Hallelujah! Hallelujah! 


Am  F           Am  F           Am  F  
      Woooooah!       Woooooah!       Woooooah! 


Am              F                    C 
The rain joins along, in apocalyptic song 
                 D 
Hallelujah! Hallelujah! 
Am                  F                        C  
The clouds learn to sing, the sky stomps its feet 
                 D 
Hallelujah! Hallelujah! 


Am  F           Am  F  
      Woooooah!       Woooooah! 

Am  F           C   F  
      Woooooah!       Woooooah! 

C   F           Am  F           C 
      Woooooah!       Woooooah!
