C Am F G
These cars can ride the highways all night
These thoughts can spin forever through my mind
I don't know what it is they hope to find
So I roam these streets at night looking for a sign
And looking at the moon
Remembering your eyes shining
I would feel less alone if I knew you were looking up there too
And so I text you to try to tell you how I feel
But when you don't text me back I know exactly what is real
And I try to run just to chase the beating of my own heart
and I wrote this song to fill the space that could be ours
And tonight I'm drinking wine
It's all because of you
My brain is twined, tangled, fucked
I just don't know what to do with myself
And now I wish you were here
I wish you were my beer
I wish you were a piece of fucking paper
I could smoke you and get sick from you
And you'd be growing inside of me 'til I die
And when I said you were a part of me I wouldn't lie
And I try to run just to chase the beating of my own heart
and I wrote this song to fill the space that could be ours
The city dumps fill
The junkyards fill
Madhouses fill
Hospitals fill
Graveyards fill
Nothing else fills

Hidden wooden house

CAPO 4th
Am Dm C G
The water was cold, the sun was so warm
the grass still wet in between my toes
We would pick berries and get nettle burns
Seems like another life, now I know time goes
You were running fast back then in the woods
you were kissing boys behind the trees
They could still hold hands, look down and smile
They used to call each other Kitty
Am Em
In that hidden wooden house, in that hidden wooden house
all dreams came true
In that hidden wooden house, in that hidden wooden house
No one really had a clue
Am Dm C G
Then winter came but we weren't cold
sat by the fire and told stories
They were still bright and proud and bold
and I asked "who ate the last berry?"
And morning came across our bodies
the years passed and so did we
all of us left a little piece
mine is with the singing bees
Am Em
In that hidden wooden house, in that hidden wooden house
all dreams came true
In that hidden wooden house, in that hidden wooden house
No one really had a clue
Dm Am Dm C-G
You were kissing boys behind the trees
but the years passed and so did we
Am Em
In that hidden wooden house, in that hidden wooden house
all dreams came true
In that hidden wooden house, in that hidden wooden house
No one really had a clue

Em C G
The shadows of july I had never seen before
Em C C G
No matter how much the sun cries on the other shore
E Am
Our sky had never been so blind
E Am
No matter where I look I only see the moon shine
No matter where I look I only see the moon shine
Em C G
I don't want to see daylight anymore
Em C G
Our night had never been so bright before
E Am
No matter where I look I only see the moon shine
No matter where I look I only see the moon shine
Em C G
Can't even see the stars floating on the ground no more
Em C G
In my head there's just one sound, one song
E Am
and my heart had never been so light
E Am
No matter where I look I only see the moon shine
No matter where I look I only see the moon shine
E Am
No matter what it took I only made your moon shine

Capo 3d
Dm C Em Am
All along I know how the story goes
but now I know I'm just a fool
if you keep winning I could lose
Can't get out of my head
but I keep climbing the same stairs
which way is the right one to choose?
G C Em Am
But on the other side
I don't know what's right
I don't know what's right
But on the other side
I don't know what's right
I don't know what's right
Dm C Em Am
I tried to make you understand
but I keep driving you insane
We are running out of tools
I'd do it all over again
look for answers in your smiles
find them in a case of booze
G C Em Am
But on the other side
I don't know what's right
I don't know what's right
But on your other side
You don't know what's right
You don't know what's right
Dm C Em Am
All along I know how the story goes
but now I know I'm just a fool
if you keep winning I could lose

You know your momma she's seen it all

She knows too well how to be strong
Em
She'll always keep you safe and warm

Goldie Locks you're the queen of all the places you belong
C G
F G C
Don't let anyone tell you ever that you don't belong
You'll have to fight to find your way
But I'll never be too far if you need me to stay
People can be cruel, but also kind
Never be afraid to show them your light
F G
In every instant you breathe
C F
In every heartbeat
G C G
You will be
And I hope I'll see you grow
and I hope I can see you and know you true
I'll make sure you see the magic in every heartbeat
'cause when I first felt yours I knew you would change me
In every instant I breathe
In every heartbeat
you will be
In every instant you breathe
In every heartbeat
You will be

C F G C
Jingle bells couldn't get my heart to beat on time
C F G Am
I'd give everything to make these feelings rhyme
G F C G
took so much time, this little light of mine
C F G C
This town, it never hurt nobody on purpose
F G Am
but I fight hard just to stay on the surface
G
Oh if I drown, don't let me down
C G
Little light of mine
Em F G C
Sometimes I wanna feel like I'm in charge of my own heart
G
but it's not mine
C
It belongs to this little light of mine
