One, two, three, four

G5
Underneath the lilac tree, I close my eyes and suddenly
C5
I'm ten years old and running through, An open field chasing after you
G5
Sounds of summer fill my ears, If I live 10,000 years
C5
I'll never feel as good as this, Moments before our first kiss

E5
There is nothing to demand, No algebra to understand
A5                           D5
Just sunlight on a freckled face
A5                 C5          D5
And everything in its right place

G5
Simple things turn magical, Minutes freeze like Popsicles
C5
And drip their seconds down our shirts, I love you so much it hurts
G5
There's no such thing as real time, I've been yours and you've been mine
C5
And we've lived ever happily, Everywhere I've been you've been with me

E5
There is nothing to control, No question mark left on our souls
A5                           D5
Just sunlight on a freckled face
E5
There is nothing to demand, No politics to understand
A5                            D5
Just sunlight on a freckled face
A5                        D5
Everything in its right place
A5             C5          D5
Everything in its right place

(Arpeggiating)
G5                                   D5
And I want to give you a brand new sky
               G5                             D5
Something so open, it brings tears to your eyes
                   G5                       D5
So clear and so present, it doesn't seem real
                G5                    D5
I want to show you how you make me feel

G5                                D5
I want to give you a brand new dream
                      G5                  D5
Where two horses drink from a silver stream
                     G5                    D5
As the trees catch fire they lift their heads
                                G5                D5
And bolt together through the forest across our beds

G5                                   D5
I want to bring you the fields of flowers
            G5                 D5
I want to build you Eiffel Towers
                          G5                     D5
Take the clouds in the evening, turn 'em into stars
                    G5                       D5
And drop 'em like keys through your prison bars
Set you free, yeah
