[Verse]

    F           C              E
The color of an afternoon just like when you were 5 years old
    F             C               E
The moon over the ocean I've seen from a island evening
F                C              E
Progression that starts to lose it's meaning
   F                  C        E
If we have spent most of a lifetime dreaming
     F               G           C
Then dreaming is the state we shall keep

F              C             E
Stories of our solitude will sing themselves to sleep
    F               C              E
And we will sing to everything the stories of where we have been
    F                                   C
The history that's coursing through our veins
            F                       C
No, nothing factual is written on a page

[Verse]

   F             C          E
So surely and so steadily a slowly moving cloud will whisper
 C                          Dm
"I am but for hours born to last"
     Em            Dm           F
Your soggy soaking future is my foggy fading past
              E
And so now if you want to wish upon me, wish upon me fast

         F              G             F               C
Whatever can be held in your heart is surely yours to grasp
C                 F                                        C
So you wish for a picture of all of the people you had the pleasure to 
know
     F                                             C
Or a postcard from all of the places that you ever wanted to go
        G                        F
Saying "you are here now on this magical night"
    E
The sun and sky at sunset, well, it's such a stunning sight
              F          G                   C
You can sleep safely and soundly and you are loved

[Verse]

    F            C               E
And nothing ever does begin like nothing ever ends
          F            C                E
Ask every atom in your body and they'll surely tell you
 C                                  Dm
"friend, I am old as time and older still"
    Em              Dm             F
And you are made of everything you love, you feel, or kill
E
I will outlive you, and forgive you, and be just a baby still
