CEm
[Intro]: x8
C Em
A boy with a coin, he found in the weeds
C Em
With bullets and pages of trade magazines
C Em
Close to a car that flipped on the turn
C Em
When God left the ground to circle the world
CEm
[Interlude]: x4 (hey, ah, ah, ah)
C Em
A girl with a bird, she found in the snow
C Em
Then flew up her gown and that's how she knows
C Em
If God made her eyes for crying at birth
C Em
Then left the ground to circle the Earth
CEm
[Interlude]: x4 (hey, ah, ah, ah)
AmEm CEm
[Solo]: x2 x4
C Em
A boy with a coin, he crammed in his jeans
C Em
Then making a wish, he tossed in the sea
C Em
Walked to a town that all of us burn
C Em
When God left the ground to circle the world
CEm
[Interlude]: x4 (hey, ah, ah, ah) (repeat all this three times)
AmEm CEm
[Outro]: x2 x4
