Blink

  from the album "Whirligig" 
 
Transcribed by Daniel Schaumann  
 
 
C          G                Am                C 
Before our eyes there are a million things we haven't tried 
        F               Dm 
They'll get here in the morning 
        Am              G 
They're just around the corner 
 
 
C         G                   Am               C 
It can be hard when we're all blanketed by the cold and dark 
      F               Dm 
We're waiting for the sun 
      Am                  G 
We've got a smile to warm us 
 
 
PRE-CHORUS: 
      Am      C 
Cause lately, everything's so heavy 
F               Em                  Am             F 
I just want the trick that makes me laugh just for fun 
              Dm                    G 
Because we're not too old and we're not too young 

          C        Em 
We've got rainbows in our eyes 
Am                C                   F 
Barefoot down the street we dodge the broken glass 
        Dm 
Just to get a laugh 
F              G 
We fly by in a blink of their eye 
 
 
So I made myself a stern face with a cast of clay 
I didn't have the knack 
You made a joke and it just cracked 
 
 
And I watched as all the serious bits flew across the floor 
Now I'm a different fella 
I paint the pieces pretty colours 
 
 
PRE-CHORUS: 
Lately everyone's so honest 
I just want the white lie as it shines in the coal 
Because we're not too young and we're not too old 
 
 
CHORUS: 
We've got rainbows in our eyes 
Barefoot down the street we dodge the broken glass 
Just to get a laugh 
We fly by in a blink of their eye 
 
We've got sunshine in our pockets 
Throw it around the room to cheer the cold dark night 
With the speed of light 
We fly by in a blink of their eye 
 
 
Am    Em                F                  G 
And I sang with my head in the dark clouds 
Am  Em                   F 
But now I sing about the small good things 
        F#dim 
Darling here comes Spring 
     G 
I'll race you there
