Intro: G C 
 
 
Verse: 
G 
The light was leaving in the west it was blue 
C 
The children's laughter sang 
G 
And skipping just like the stones they threw 
C                                 C/G
Their voices echoed across the way 
Dsus2
It's getting late.... 

G          F            C 
And it was just another night 
       D7           G 
With a sunset and a moonrise 
F           C                 D7              G 
Not too far behind to give us just enough light 
            F              C 
To lay down underneath the stars 
               D7                G 
We listened to papa's translations 
       F                  C 
Of the stories across the skies 
            D7               G 
We drew our own constellations
 
 
 
Just continue this same pattern throughout the song.
