Intro
C#
[Verse]
C# A#m
The night that the power went out
C# F# G#
Stumbling through drawers for a flashlight
[Chorus]
F# C# G# A#m
White in the match for a second or two
F# C# G# A#m
Burning my finger with wax on my shoe
F# C# G# A#m
Flying around like bat in a zoo
F# G# C#
It's a view that we won't ever see
[Verse]
C# A#m
And I was the sleeve of your coat
C# F# G#
C# maraca without any insides
[Chorus]
F# C# G# A#m
C# silent garden of carrots and peas
F# C# G# A#m
Listening into the sound of the breeze
F# C# G# A#m
Patiently waiting for someone to leave
F# G# C#
With the sleeve on the coat rack downstairs
[Bridge]
F#
But I'm not there
C#
I am right here
G# D#m
Sitting alone with the things that I fear
F#
I've made mistakes
C#
But I don't care
F#m
They're just an albatross hanging round
G#
An albatross hanging round my neck
[Verse]
C# A#m
So stick out your tongue in the air
C# F# G#
Cause you might not be able tomorrow
[Chorus]
F# C#
The change in the weather
G# A#m
The shape of the sun
F# C# G# A#m
C# slight indication that winter is done
F# C# G# A#m
So catch all the snowflakes you can with your tongue
[Outro]
F# G# A#m
Cause you only can one day a year
F# G# C#
Tomorrow the summer is here
