Em
If the fish swam out of the ocean
And grew legs and they started walking
C
And the apes climb down from the trees
Am Bm
And grew tall and they started talking
Em
And the stars fell out of the sky
And my tears rolled into the ocean
C
Now I'm looking for a reason why
Am Bm
You even set my world into motion
Em
Cause if you're not really here
Then the stars don't even matter
C
Now I'm filled to the top with fear
Am Bm
That it's all just a bunch of matter
Em
Cause if you're not really here
I don't wanna be either
C
I wanna be next to you
Am Bm
Black and gold, black and gold..
Em
Black and gold
Em
I look up into the night sky
And see a thousand eyes staring back
C
And all around these golden beacons
Am Bm
I see nothing but black
Em
I feel a way of something beyond them
I don't see what I can feel
C
If vision is the only validation
Am Bm
Then most of my life isn't real
Em
Cause if you're not really here
Then the stars don't even matter
C
Now I'm filled to the top with fear
Am Bm
That it's all just a bunch of matter
Em
Cause if you're not really here
I don't wanna be either
C
I wanna be next to you
Am Bm
Black and gold, black and gold..
Em
Black and gold

Em
Cause if you're not really here
Then the stars don't even matter
C
Now I'm filled to the top with fear
Am Bm
That it's all just a bunch of matter
Em
Cause if you're not really here
I don't wanna be either
C
I wanna be next to you
Am Bm
Black and gold, black and gold..
Em
Black and gold
Black and gold
