Intro
B G#m B G#m
Feeling like a stranger in my city and my skin
G#m E F#
Nothing around here reminds me of anything
B G#m B G#m
Evening's growing shorter and the swallows spread their wings
G#m F# E
Dislocate me, bend me, shake me, make me fit back in
E
Make me fit back in
[Verse 1]
B G#m F#
With the people at the party, and the monologues
B F#
Catching my breath behind the bathroom door
E G#m
And I'm having drinks, and saying things, and laughing till I'm sore
G#m E F#
No one around here knows me anymore
[Chorus]
E C#m E
And another half moon shining half a light
E F#
Another day that came my way and passed me by
G#m F#
Swallowed by the night
[Verse 2]
F# E F# E
Feeling like I'm lying, reciting my old lines
B E B E B G#m
Life goes on and back to work, and thank you, I'm alright
C#m F# G#m F# G#m
I can't remember what I need, somebody read my mind
F# E
Crack me open, come pull up the blinds
[Chorus]
E C#m E
And another half won't shine in half a light
E F# C#m E
I wish I could keep the days from passing by
C#m E
Drift upstream, and travel back in time
E C#m E F#
Find your hand and hold it tight in mine
[Outro]
B G#m E G#m
Moonset, sunrise, time doesn't heal
E C#m E C#m
It just goes by, it just goes by
B G#m E G#m
Sunset, moonrise, time doesn't heal
E C#m E C#m
It just goes by, it just goes by
B G#m E C#m
Tuck you in, magnolia skies
E C#m E C#m
It just goes by, it just goes by
B G#m E C#m
Medicine and weary eyes
E C#m E B
It just goes by, it just goes by
G#m E C#m
And summer birds, and winter byes
E B E C#m
It just goes by, it just goes by
B G#m C#m E C#m
Spring and fall, and bloom and die
E B E C#m E C#m
It just goes by, it just goes by, it just goes by
