G D When you point at the sky C D What you hit will be far away G Funny that D With the naked eye C You might look at a star and say D Am D It's like somebody's playing with us Am D It's borderline suspicious Chorus: G As if D The hum of the heavens above C Am Murmurs from the afterglow F C Will not be mysteries for all tomorrows G As if D I'll empty out a lake with a spoon C Am Buy a plot of land on the moon F Where we can hide away C And tend our sorrows Will you look at the time? I don't know what Got over me Yes, I do Hope you don't mind I'll be off Momentarily For me to intrude In this way Highly unusual You might say Chorus: As if Like a shirt worn thin through the years I'll let you down the moment I tear I can assure you That won't happen ever As if You're standing On the edge of a cliff Unaware your footing might slip I won't be there to push you back Forever As if The hum of the heavens above Murmurs from the afterglow Will not be mysteries for all tomorrows As if I'll empty out a lake with a spoon Buy a plot of land on the moon Where we can hide away And tend our sorrows G As if D As if C Am As if F C As if G As if D As if C Am As if F C As if You can simplify chords by removing barre | TransposeReset Font SizeReset Guitar Chord DiagramsAm  C  D  F  G  Here you can see detailed diagrams for each guitar chord used in the song.
