VERSE 1:
A     F
The blossoms are falling
   G
Making a white path, across the grass
A     F   G
Thunderheads are building, your skin tightens
And you wait for the flash
A      F      G
Across the street, the boys are laughing
As they was each other's cars
A     F   G
They turn up the hip hop, white boys
Rappin with the black stars

Are you in the pocket of the moment in this particular second

The street is sixth, it should be seventh
A  F   G
You hear the chiming of the ice cream truck
Rambling like in a dream
A  F  G
I hear your footsteps behind me
The sweetest eddy in the stream
