[Intro]
C F C F C

[Verse 1]
 C
We were trippin' out to this riff in our heads

Something that goes like this
               F
But comes out way different
              C
Kind of like your first kiss


Those times, just in time

I fell out of some trees
                                    F
Though I lay and saw the world so clearly
                       C
And in all the right colors


[Chorus 1]
       F
In the sky
       C
In the sky
       F
In the sky
       C           G
In the sky to the ground
          Am             F
From the waters to your mouth
        C                 G         C
I can see it from this riverbed of ours


C F C F C


[Verse 2]
 C
One hookah, some cheese

Ma'am, check please
                                 F
Out into the streets we ran so childishly
                     C
'Cause why does it matter?


Two young lovers with room to grow
                                      F
Let's see who can do three cartwheels in a row
                      C
'Cause why does it matter?


[Chorus 2]
           F
Don't ask why
           C
Don't ask why
           F
Don't ask why
           C
Don't ask why
         G
I won't lie
          Am               F
They were two kids gettin' high
        C              G             C
Off of life and their love for each other


C F C F C


[Verse 3]
C
Our faces glow from our epiphanies

As we ate like kings from banana trees
     F                           C
And felt relieved to be going swimming

The Milky Way's got a way with me
                                F
Am I really here or am I just dreaming
                 C
On my way out to sea?


[Chorus 3]
         F
We will sail
         C
We will sail
         F
We will sail
         C            G
We will sail off the earth
          Am               F
And find out just how it works
      C                 G
To believe in something that
            C
Embodies matter


[Outro]
                   G
If you see what I see
       Am           F
From where I'm standing
            C
What you've shown me
    G           C
Can only get better

                   G
If you see what I see
       Am           F
From where I'm standing
            C
What you've shown me
    G           C
Can only get better
