let's paint the city Eiffel tower green 
            F
and go on a holiday, go on vacation
            C
this is the closest that you've ever been, 
                    F
but you're still so far away from your destination
             C
you drive an hour but it feels like days, 
          F
it's just buildings and buildings and buildings
             C
and when you finally leave suburban haze 
               F
you're quietly shocked at the thought that we kill things

we left a photograph in letterhead
             F
found in the morning in newspaper sunlight
           C
we left it lying on the kitchen chair
              F
and when you found it we hope that it reads right
           C
it's never easy when we write good-bye
                    F
but good-bye is the one word we know
             C
you'll never make it but we have to try
              F
give in, give up, and let go 
F
give up and let go

the black house, the blue sky (you and I)

we left the ending locked inside that room
    F
and you hold the key
         C
you push open the door
    F
and then you see

you see the black house and the blue sky
