Intro
C Cmaj7 C7 F
You were my Earth
[Verse 1]
C
And with a smile like an ocean wave
Cmaj7
You catapult around the Sun
C7
And meet me at the other side
F
To tell me that you found it fun
C
Swimmin' in the UV rays
Cmaj7
You shouted like the sound of thunder
C7
Boomin' through my stupid shades
F
You shook all of the ground undone
C Cmaj7
I slipped into your beauty like a mudslide
C7
And on my search, I found nothing but
F
upsides
C
Your arms extend like branches
Cmaj7
Whenever we touch I feel the bark begin to
C7 F
Soften up at all my sappy punchlines
C
Maybe that's the reason
[Chorus]
Cmaj7 C7
You're my earth
F C
You're the planet
Cmaj7 C7
You're the grass
F C
The wind and tides
Cmaj7 C7
And now that you're gone
F C
I feel so out of place
Cmaj7 C7
And now that you're gone
F C
I'm just driftin' through space
Cmaj7 C7
And now that you're gone
F C
I feel so out of place
Cmaj7 C7
And now that you're gone
F
I'm just driftin' through space
[Verse 2]
C
And when we split up like Pangea
Cmaj7
I was hopin' that we could reform
C7 F
G landbridge between our separate pieces of the Earth
C
Before our disconnect began to breed a
Cmaj7
species
That would hurt much more
C7 F
Than carnivores, herbivores, recklessness or urban swarm
C Cmaj7
Maybe I could wash up on a certain shore
C7
Smilin' past a long night of drinkin'
F
And the lights above the island
C
Watching lightnin' flash every time
Cmaj7
You open up your eyelids
C7 F
Gentle smirks exploding like a fire in the sky
C
Until you scared away the forest creatures
Cmaj7
Sleepin' in the trees
C7
They began to huddle next to me
F
Weepin' in the leaves
C
See I watched you change the temperature
Cmaj7
Increasin' the degrees
C7
Until the warmth was just enough
F
To let them nestle into peace
C
I never thought there'd be
Cmaj7
G problem that we couldn't solve
C7
When you control the weather's climate
F
And the sea levels and all
C
But I suppose that when an earthquake
Cmaj7
Splits the crust above the faults
C7
I shouldn't act as if the damage
F C
Wouldn't break up those involved
[Chorus]
Cmaj7 C7
You were my earth
F C
You were the planet
Cmaj7 C7
You were the grass
F C
The wind and tides
Cmaj7 C7
And now that you're gone
F C
I feel so out of place
Cmaj7 C7
And now that you're gone
F C
I'm just driftin' through space
Cmaj7 C7
And now that you're gone
F C
I feel so out of place
Cmaj7 C7
And now that you're gone
F C
I'm just driftin' through space
