{Verse 1}

       G5                                     E5      
So we drive at the fate of this deep phoenix sky
                                C5
With it's contents that keep me alive
            D5                     G5 
Incessantly breathing through the night
        G5                                          E5
Till we crash with the white caps that ride on our backs
                                  C5                      
Breaking down on the sand of this western coast
        D5                           G5
Where I never once thought we would stand
                

{Pre-Chorus}
                D5 
But here we are now
       E5            C5              D5
Riding currents that taste of a new town
        G5           C5               D5
Feeling high as the night's winding down
     E5       C5                 E5                  D5  
And now all I can see are white stars they span forever




{Chorus}

G5             D5                                       C5
As I lay by a streetlight not a word I could possibly say
G5             D5                                       C5  
To explain my intrigue by how emphatic we are just to be, 

E5  C5  D5  G5  E5  C5  D5  
        G5
just to be
 


{Verse 2}
       G5                                  E5
Now we run facing out at the southwestern sun
                        C5
So content to be all so undone
                    D5               G5
Cause here in these moments we have won
        G5
And I'm sure that I've imagined these sites
      E5                                   C5
But I forget why I was never enticed to go out and try
    D5                     G5
But tonight dream becomes life
 

{Pre-Chorus}
                  D5
Cause here we are now
       E5            C5              D5
Riding currents they taste of a new town
         G5           C5               D5
We're so high as the night's winding down
       E5          C5            E5              D5
Just a spot on the map of this land it spans forever
 

{Chorus}


G5             D5                                       C5
As I lay by a streetlight not a word I could possibly say
G5               D5                                      C5  
To explain my intrigue by how emphatic we are just to be
 

{Bridge}

      E5   D5      C5          G5
And I wont take a minute for granted
  E5   D5             C5       G5 
I wont waste another word
      E5              D5          C5
These streets I would kill to be lost in

G5  D5  D5  C5
G5  D5  D5  C5

G5          D5                                         C5 
I lay by a streetlight as the summer air soaks in my lungs
G5                D5
Cause I lay by a streetlight
    D5                         C5                        G5      D5
How impressive are we just to live and breathe in this world
        D5                C5                G5      D5
And how lucky am I to be so alive in this world
       D5                       C5                 G5 
Oh how precious are we just to simply be in this world

G5  D5  D5  C5

G5
