  			G 
I laid a kiss upon your forehead that night. 
G 
We laid awake and you wondered why I’d said, 
C 
“I’d never felt a kiss quite like this before.” 
             G 
You said, “A kiss is a kiss,” 
            
But it was never like this before. 

G 
Oh K, Oh K, Okay 
G 
Oh K, Oh K, Okay 

G 
I laid my head upon your chest in the dark. 
G 
You said to me that if it’s only a spark 
         C 
That can grow to be the nucleus of flame, 
             G 
Well, then a flicker in the dark 

Will start a good fire all the same. 

G 
Oh K, Oh K, Okay 
G 
Oh K, Oh K, Okay 

Em              Am 
I’d never met a girl who 
G                  Em     
Thinks the way that I do 
Am               D 
About the better things, 
Am                         D 
Like the reflection of the moon 
Am                  D 
Or the mortality of fire 
Am                    D          G 
And the distance of a star and us. 

G 
Oh K, Oh K, Okay 

G 
I lay my thoughts upon you in the dark. 
G 
I lay beside you and listen to your heart beat, 
C 
Rippling the water on the lake and the stars 
        G 
And the night sky and bright sparks. 

G 
Oh K, Oh K, Okay 
G 
Oh K, Oh K, Okay 

Em              Am 
I’d never met a girl who 
G                  Em     
Thinks the way that I do 
Am               D 
About the better things, 
Am                         D 
And the reflection of the moon 
Am                  D 
Or the anatomy of fire 
Am                    D         Em 
Or the distance of a star and us. 

Em    G       Am                   Em 
La da dum dum dum, We’ll never be alone 
Am               D 
As long as we survive, 
Am               D 
Separated by the miles, 
Am             D 
Far across the land... 
Am               D              G 
And on a distant shore, there’s us. 

G 
Oh K, Oh K, Okay 
G 
Oh K, Oh K, Okay

Oh K, Oh K, Okay

Oh K, Oh K, Okay
