[Verse]
Bm              C#     D
Sleeping in the beetle bug
       B5  A5  F#5    A5 G   Em    D
With a hundred pounds of air in my heart
      F#5   E5   D5  E5 F#5 D5   G G/F#    Bm
Don't think that I'm able               to sympathize
    C#         D*     G* GM7 G6   G* GM7 G6   G* GM7 G6   G* GM7 G6
I'm happier to see it gone

[Verse]
Bm        C#        D
Floating above your house
       B5  A5  F#5  A5  G        Em      D
Like a penguin dropping cherries from my mouth
F#5 E5  D5  E5 F#5 D5   G G/F#    Bm
Tapping the walnuts and       the shadows
         C#               D*         A5
Out of a dreaming pair of brown-eyed ghosts

[Chorus]
                F5      Bm       D
In each of your eyes, I saw it's spring
      Bm    Gm
Where every mouth wakes up
A5               F5    Bm       D           A
To a smile and a yawn, grass is long and laughs
         CM/m                  A
When the wind jumps through it

[Verse]
             Bm                C#           D
It must have started with that stick in the mud
B5   A5      F#5 A5 G   Em     D
That there's where  clouds are born
       F#5   E5 D5 E5    F#5  D5 G G/F# Bm
Clouds can't stay  where they are       born
      C#           D*       G* GM7 G6   G* GM7 G6   G* GM7 G6   G* GM7 G6
Winds push them so far from home

[Verse]
    Bm       C#        D
The sound of your laughter
   B5 A5  F#5 A5 G Em  D
Tiptoeing across   the floor
          F#5 E5 D5 E5 F#5 D5 G G/F# Bm
Makes the deepest   of     red       umbrellas
C#        D*       A5
Able to inflate my smile

[Chorus]
                F5      Bm       D
In each of your eyes, I saw it's spring
      Bm    Gm
Where every mouth wakes up
A5               F5    Bm       D           A
To a smile and a yawn, grass is long and laughs
         CM/m                  A
When the wind jumps through it

[Outro]
D*   Asus4   D*   Bm   G    D*
G* GM7 G6
G* GM7 G6
G* GM7 G6
G* GM7 G6
G* GM7 G6
G* GM7 G6
(1  +  2  +  3  +  4  +  1~)
 G* GM7   G6    GM7      D*
