A
On summer nights the stars fall a little slower and
F#m
I don't know if I can catch them in time
D
To sew words delicately to the palm of my hand, tell me
E7
What am I worth?
A
Do you see words written in the air?
F#m
Or is it just me forming pictures from nowhere
D
I have funny little comic books taped to my hands and
E7
A brain within a brain, it's got a mind of it's own, yeah
A F#m D E7
A
Rocket ships will take off
F#m
Whether you're in them or not
D
And it's sad but it's the truth
E7
The world would still turn without you
A
And when your bones turn to earth
F#m
And you ask me "What was I worth?"
D
I'll simply plant a flower above you
E7
And you can watch it grow
A F#m D E7
D E7
You can watch it grow, you can watch it grow, you can watch it grow
A F#m D E7
D E7
You can watch it grow, you can watch it grow, you can watch it grow
A
On summer nights my thoughts form a little vaguer and
F#m
I don't know how to arrange them or put them into words
D
Now I'm leaving bashful teardrops in my hands
E7
So tell me I ain't a man
A
Do you think aliens in outer space
F#m
Think that they're the only human race
D
My mind's a house of magic cards about to blow away, yeah
E7
I'm just a shoot and I'm not ready to grow yet
A F#m D E7
A
Rocket ships will take off
F#m
Whether you're in them or not
D
And it's sad but it's the truth

A
Would it be okay for me to stay?
F#m
If okay is here then I'm far away
D
And the train's not leaving for a while
E7
I packed by bags but they've emptied themselves somehow
A
The thought of meaning something just makes my brain
F#m
Twist, invert, and fall down sideways
D
But my voice is a spark so let me sing
E7
'til the fire's so bright it's deafening
A
Rocket ships will take off
F#m
Whether you're in them or not

And it's sad but it's the truth

I'll simply plant a flower above you
E7
And you can watch it grow

You can watch it grow, you can watch it grow, you can watch it grow
A F#m D E7

You can watch it grow, you can watch it grow, you can watch it grow
A F#m D E7
