Try to use the barre chords in the verse, it sounds better (in my opinion).

VERSE 1:

Mercury is rising still
Bb       Am     G

I won't step on my own shadow

Lift my bed sheet keep in sandles

C        Gm       F        Am
Summer's here but night is raising
Bb        Am    E
Hopes and dragonflies

Bm                 E
If those hopes are overshadowed

By cotton-candy, caramel-wafer

After wine and nectarines the

Fireflies in turn

Move like syrup through the evening
Bb       Am    E
With the sweet reign

I won't fight for can't happen

I'm preoccupied
