Intro
D Dmaj7 D7 G
You were my Earth
[Verse 1]
D
And with a smile like an ocean wave
Dmaj7
You catapult around the Sun
D7
And meet me at the other side
G
To tell me that you found it fun
D
Swimmin' in the UV rays
Dmaj7
You shouted like the sound of thunder
D7
Boomin' through my stupid shades
G
You shook all of the ground undone
D Dmaj7
I slipped into your beauty like a mudslide
D7
And on my search, I found nothing but
G
upsides
D
Your arms extend like branches
Dmaj7
Whenever we touch I feel the bark begin to
D7 G
Soften up at all my sappy punchlines
D
Maybe that's the reason
[Chorus]
Dmaj7 D7
You're my earth
G D
You're the planet
Dmaj7 D7
You're the grass
G D
The wind and tides
Dmaj7 D7
And now that you're gone
G D
I feel so out of place
Dmaj7 D7
And now that you're gone
G D
I'm just driftin' through space
Dmaj7 D7
And now that you're gone
G D
I feel so out of place
Dmaj7 D7
And now that you're gone
G
I'm just driftin' through space
[Verse 2]
D
And when we split up like Pangea
Dmaj7
I was hopin' that we could reform
D7 G
A landbridge between our separate pieces of the Earth
D
Before our disconnect began to breed a
Dmaj7
species
That would hurt much more
D7 G
Than carnivores, herbivores, recklessness or urban swarm
D Dmaj7
Maybe I could wash up on a certain shore
D7
Smilin' past a long night of drinkin'
G
And the lights above the island
D
Watching lightnin' flash every time
Dmaj7
You open up your eyelids
D7 G
Gentle smirks exploding like a fire in the sky
D
Until you scared away the forest creatures
Dmaj7
Sleepin' in the trees
D7
They began to huddle next to me
G
Weepin' in the leaves
D
See I watched you change the temperature
Dmaj7
Increasin' the degrees
D7
Until the warmth was just enough
G
To let them nestle into peace
D
I never thought there'd be
Dmaj7
A problem that we couldn't solve
D7
When you control the weather's climate
G
And the sea levels and all
D
But I suppose that when an earthquake
Dmaj7
Splits the crust above the faults
D7
I shouldn't act as if the damage
G D
Wouldn't break up those involved
[Chorus]
Dmaj7 D7
You were my earth
G D
You were the planet
Dmaj7 D7
You were the grass
G D
The wind and tides
Dmaj7 D7
And now that you're gone
G D
I feel so out of place
Dmaj7 D7
And now that you're gone
G D
I'm just driftin' through space
Dmaj7 D7
And now that you're gone
G D
I feel so out of place
Dmaj7 D7
And now that you're gone
G D
I'm just driftin' through space
