With dark Gmaj7sand in my shoes
To where the orange A7pumpkin I found
Cracked Gmaj7open in the waves
Its F#memptiness

In the middle of November

Gmaj7

Smashed on the rocks

At the edge of the island

Gmaj7

A bright thing caught my eye,

F#m

It was a pumpkin

Half

[Riff]

Bm(b13) (224433)

(022x00)

I walked to the bookstore

Gmaj7

In a rain that silently filled the air

All the lights were off or dim

Gmaj7

And there was nothing to do

F#m

But walk to town

And back

[Riff]

Bm E5

In every ordinary moment

Gmaj7

Looking at trash on the ground

By the bulldozers in the dusk

Gmaj7

I forget myself

F#m A7

And see universes forming

[Riff]

Bm D Bm E5

Bm F#m E5

Pulled back out from a dream of rolling landscapes

I face the moment

Looking at garbage

Gmaj7

Pretending the wind speaks

Finding meaning in songs

Gmaj7 F#m

But the wind through the graves

Is just wind

[Riff]

Bm E5

Crawling over the wet rocks

Gmaj7

With dark sand in my shoes

To where the orange pumpkin I found

Gmaj7

Cracked open in the waves

F#m

Its emptiness

(strum once)
