Synesthesia

• C

Capo 1 

           C 
I saw pictures from the space shuttle 
                  F 
Of America tonight 
            C   
I could almost see my house  
                                   F 
I could almost see the rest of my life 
       C 
And my mother's in the hospital 
                         F 
And my friends are in the news 
                              C 
Collecting trophies for the songs they wrote 
       Am              G               C 
While we lived in the shadow of the moon 

Yes, I never made a gold record 
And I've never been to Mars 
But I've traveled around this world 
Shooting fireworks and falling stars, and prison bars 

And my father's got a decent job 
And he's finally pulling through 
There's more to life than singing songs we wrote 
While we lived in the shadow of the moon 

           F   C        Am           G 
And I see colors when I hear your voice 
                F             C       Am   G 
Put on your wings that put gravity on trial 
              F   C         Am         G 
And I see colors, I don't hear the noise 
                F     C           Am    G 
Because we're only flying for a while 
                F      C          Am    G 
Because we're only flying for a while 

I saw this picture of my niece 
Twisting high above the narrow beam 
And my brother looked so proud 
Like he woke up in this perfect dream 

And I've known you all my life 
But I knew you long before that tune 
Let's go dancing to the songs we wrote 
When we lived in the shadow of the moon 

And I see colors when I hear your voice 
Put on your wings that put gravity on trial 
I see colors, I don't hear the noise 
Because we're only flying for a while 

And I could love you in the falling rain 
Like many things, this is a storm we're meant to ride 
Like synesthesia aboard a stalling plane 
It's like we're only flying for a while 
Flying for a while 

F       Am 
Whoooaaaaaaa (3x) 

And I see colors when I hear your voice 
Put on your wings that put gravity on trial 
I see colors, and I don't feel the choice   
Because we're only flying for a while 

And I could love you in the falling rain 
Like many things, this is a storm we're meant to ride 
Like synesthesia aboard a stalling plane 
It's like we're only flying for a while 

F            Am 
Flying for a while 
Flying for a while 
Flying for a while 
Whoaaaaaaaaaaaa 

(End on: F)
