Intro
E Emaj7 E7 A
You were my Earth
[Verse 1]
E
And with a smile like an ocean wave
Emaj7
You catapult around the Sun
E7
And meet me at the other side
A
To tell me that you found it fun
E
Swimmin' in the UV rays
Emaj7
You shouted like the sound of thunder
E7
Boomin' through my stupid shades
A
You shook all of the ground undone
E Emaj7
I slipped into your beauty like a mudslide
E7
And on my search, I found nothing but
A
upsides
E
Your arms extend like branches
Emaj7
Whenever we touch I feel the bark begin to
E7 A
Soften up at all my sappy punchlines
E
Maybe that's the reason
[Chorus]
Emaj7 E7
You're my earth
A E
You're the planet
Emaj7 E7
You're the grass
A E
The wind and tides
Emaj7 E7
And now that you're gone
A E
I feel so out of place
Emaj7 E7
And now that you're gone
A E
I'm just driftin' through space
Emaj7 E7
And now that you're gone
A E
I feel so out of place
Emaj7 E7
And now that you're gone
A
I'm just driftin' through space
[Verse 2]
E
And when we split up like Pangea
Emaj7
I was hopin' that we could reform
E7 A
B landbridge between our separate pieces of the Earth
E
Before our disconnect began to breed a
Emaj7
species
That would hurt much more
E7 A
Than carnivores, herbivores, recklessness or urban swarm
E Emaj7
Maybe I could wash up on a certain shore
E7
Smilin' past a long night of drinkin'
A
And the lights above the island
E
Watching lightnin' flash every time
Emaj7
You open up your eyelids
E7 A
Gentle smirks exploding like a fire in the sky
E
Until you scared away the forest creatures
Emaj7
Sleepin' in the trees
E7
They began to huddle next to me
A
Weepin' in the leaves
E
See I watched you change the temperature
Emaj7
Increasin' the degrees
E7
Until the warmth was just enough
A
To let them nestle into peace
E
I never thought there'd be
Emaj7
B problem that we couldn't solve
E7
When you control the weather's climate
A
And the sea levels and all
E
But I suppose that when an earthquake
Emaj7
Splits the crust above the faults
E7
I shouldn't act as if the damage
A E
Wouldn't break up those involved
[Chorus]
Emaj7 E7
You were my earth
A E
You were the planet
Emaj7 E7
You were the grass
A E
The wind and tides
Emaj7 E7
And now that you're gone
A E
I feel so out of place
Emaj7 E7
And now that you're gone
A E
I'm just driftin' through space
Emaj7 E7
And now that you're gone
A E
I feel so out of place
Emaj7 E7
And now that you're gone
A E
I'm just driftin' through space
