Gadd2/B
[Verse 1]
Gadd2/B Em11
Do you remember running?
D/F# Em11
The purity of the air around
Gadd2 D/F# Em11
Braiding willow branches into a crown
Gadd2 D/F# Em11
That love is all I want
Gadd2/B
[Verse 2]
Gadd2/B Em11 D/F#
I'm a child humming
Em11
Into the clarity of the black space
Gadd2 D/F# Em11
Where stars shine like tears on the night's face
Gadd2 D/F# Em11
With a cool wind
Gadd2/B
[Verse 3]
Gadd2/B Em11 D/F#
Mama, what happened?
Em11
Never thought we'd go this long
Gadd2 D/F# Em11
Now 31 and I don’t feel strong
Gadd2 D/F# Em11
And your love is all I want
Gadd2/B
[Verse 4]
Gadd2/B Em11 D/F#
When I was seven
Em11
I saw the first film that made me scared
Gadd2 D/F# Em11
And I thought of this whole world ending
Gadd2 D/F# Em11
I thought of dying unprepared
Gadd2/B
[Verse 5]
Gadd2/B Em11 D/F#
We moved into a real house
Em11 Gadd2/B
A wild field behind it
Em11
I wanted to be an inventor
D/F# Em11
Collected scraps to make a portal
Gadd2 D/F# Em11
I wanted so much for magic to be real
Gadd2/B
[Verse 6]
Gadd2/B Em11
So many dreams of flying
D/F# Em11
Rising high over a crowd
Gadd2 D/F# Em11
And they' go “oh man, look at her go”
Gadd2 D/F# Em11
And I'd go
Gadd2/B

[Verse 7]
Gadd2/B Em11 D/F#
Do you remember
Em11 Gadd2/B
Coming to the hospital when I was fourteen?
Em11
My friends all left me there spinning
D/F# Em11
Dad was angry and you saw everything
Gadd2 D/F# Em11
And you made me laugh as the nurses undressed me
Gadd2 D/F# Em11
You held my hand as they put the needle in me
Gadd2/B
[Verse 8]
Gadd2/B Em11 D/F#
I never saw you cry
Em11
Not until our dog died
Gadd2 D/F# Em11
And our whole family came back together
Gadd2 D/F# Em11
We held her body as they put the needle in her
Gadd2 D/F# Em11
And then I saw you cry
Gadd2 D/F# Em11
And then I saw you cry
