VERSE 1:
C9 F69
He's sending stones skimming and flying
C9 F69
Circles spinning out his time

Though the earth is dying his head is in the stars
C9 F69
Chances are this spark's a lifetime

VERSE 2:
C9 F69
Out of touch he'll live in wonder
C9 F69
Won't lose sleep he'll just pretend
C9 F69
In his world he won't go under
C9 F69
Turns without him until the end

Eb9 Ebm Eb9 Ebm Eb9 Ebm Eb9
Rivers run dry but there's no line on his brow
Ebm F Fb9 F Fb9 F Fb9 F Fb9

It's just the dice you roll, the here and now

And he's not guilty or afraid
Ebm
One day he'll slip away

Cool water flowing all around In the river and on the ground
Ebm C#7M G74 G7
Leave a pocketful of stones and not believe in other lives
VERSE 3:
C9 F69
Until then he'll live in wonder

In his world he won't go under

Turns without him until the end
