Introducción:
D
Bright blue hydrangeas
G D
Lost in the weeds
G
Bus stops and barbed wire on the way to stare
Em
At the heart of the earth from the Poas peak
G Em
Just like the ones that we grew back in Jersey
G
Hung upside down, drying out for the wedding
D G
There's a man with his head in his hands on the sidewalk
D G
His wife's there behind him just off of the street
D G D
She scratches his back as he sobs on the asphalt
G
And what strikes me most is the symmetry
Em
How they're framed just like you and me
G
When the light from the hospital's eastern wing
Em G
Tangles up in your hair and the sadness it pooled in my heart
G
Starts emptying slowly
D C#m Bm A G
Well I saw you last night in my dream
D C#m Bm A G D
And there were hydrangeas where your face should be
G D
The redwoods feel lonely and lunar and distant
G D
The sun comes in fragments through breaks in the trees
G D
And I feel further from home than I've ever been
G
These thin lines of light across space tether you to me
Em G
They pull in my memories, back to our apartment on 2nd Street
Em G
Through the South-facing window the light catches lengths of your hair
Like a path that you left me
D C#m Bm A G
Well I saw you last night in my dream
D C#m Bm A G
But there were azaleas where your face should be
D/F# Em
Pieces of us in the morning sun
G
Sleeping bags under the 101
D/F# Em
She takes off his glasses and she falls asleep again
G
They don't got much but goddamn they got love
D C#m Bm A G
Well I saw you last night in my dream
D C#m Bm A G
I'm gonna marry you underneath driftwood from Crescent City
