Intro Em 

          F               G          C      Em  Am 
And as I fall from this home as a feather 
       F                    G             C      Em   Am 
Into your pocket where I'll haunt myself forever 
F           G              C            Am 
All of the paths that have led here now overgrow 
F           G               C 
Paper planes hover round my window 

Cm 

F 
What's the day? 

Oh what's the hour? 
Fm                                 C 
A sip on dream I don't recollect now 
          Am 
Not at all 
F 
Tidal waves rip through the breezeway 
Fm 
A year once new now far behind me 
C             Em              Am 
Making a few more wishes come true 
          F          G 
Why don't you and I unbraid 
C              F 
Take some time today 
         F       G    C 
Til the memories fade away 

     F              G                C      Em Am 
And now all of the songs that we've crewed 
      F          G                  C      Em Am 
Slowly stretch their selves out of tune 
    F                G        C                  Am 
Exhausted from the brawl, my top spinning to a fall 
 F         G           C                    Cm 
Looking up words I misspell them all 

F 
Early evening 

A well loved pillow 
Fm                                    C 
Time to wake a brisk shake and billow 
C                                  Am 
A wish list from of the child I've become 
F 
Tidal waves roar high above me 
Fm 
Onward the dark glow colored lightly 
C                   Em       Am 
By the sight of a dripping sun 

          F          G 
Why don't you and I unbraid 
C              F 
Take some time today 
         F       G    C 
Til the memories fade away
