[G] So I got out of it [Am] but to my surprise my eyes were wide and [F] already open.
[D] It was my nightstand and my dresser [G] where those nightmares had just been.
[C] So I dressed myself and left then [G] out into the gray [F] streets.
Everything seemed different, [G] completely new to me.
[Am] All the sky, the trees, houses, buildings, [F] even my own body.
[D] Each person I encountered [G] I couldn't wait to meet.
[C] I came upon a doctor [G] who appeared in quite poor health.
[F] I said there's nothing I can do for you, [G] sir, you can't do for yourself.
He said, [Am] oh yes you can.
Hold my [F] hand, I think that that would help.
[D] So I sat there for a while, [G] then I asked him how he felt.
He [F] said I [E] think [A] I'm true, [Am] no fact I'm sure.
Thank you stranger for [G] your therapeutic smile.

[G] [C] That's how I learned the lesson [G] that everyone's alone.
[F] Your eyes must do some raining [G] if you're ever gonna grow.
[Am] But when crying don't help, you can't compose [F] yourself.
It's best to compose a poem, [D] an honest verse of longing, [G] some simple song of hope.
That's why [C] I'm singing baby don't worry, [G] not about your back.
[F] Every time you feel like crying, I [G] wanna try and make you laugh.
[Am] If I can, if it hurts too bad, [F] we'll wait for it to pass.
[D] And I'll sleep beside you [G] on those nights so long and black.
And we'll [C] keep working on the problem [G] we know will never solve.
[F] If love's uneven remainder, our [G] lives are fractions of a whole.
[Am] If the world could remain within a [F] frame, like a painting on a [D] wall.
Well I guess you'd see the beauty [G] then, we'd stand staring in awe [B] at our [E] still [Am] lives close.
Like a [Em] poem [Am] on oranges, [F] like a [Am] story told by [G] the fault lines and the [C] soil.
