Dm Here and there and gone again Firefly juice on your skin C You're glowing like an atom bomb This natural thing that you've undone Dm Outgrew older sister's clothes again Won't admit you're growing tall and thin C You like your body pulling at the seams You're not prepared for what the future brings Dm Curse words and empty cups Cracked blacktop curling up C Heatwave by midday G Heat lightning on a summer night Dm And I remember when you used to call Holed up in the closet in the hall C Scared you wouldn't live to forty-five The same age as your father when he died G You'd say, "We need to talk F Sneak out, meet me on your block" Am I'd sit by you, silent on the curb C What to say when there is not a word? Dm Spell broke at daybreak Light another candle on the cake C Cartwheel and a broken wrist Dm Skin scarred and sun-kissed When you told me 'bout your first time The soccer player at the senior high I felt my body crumple to the floor Betrayal like I'd never felt before I thought back to many years ago A late-night promise on the telephone We'd build a house of twigs and vines Grow old together just to pass the time Now there's only past and present day I can't believe a word you say The future isn't worth its weight in gold The future is a benevolent black hole You can simplify chords by removing barre | TransposeReset Font SizeReset Guitar Chord DiagramsAm  C  Dm  F  G  Here you can see detailed diagrams for each guitar chord used in the song.
