[B]
[E] I'm going to sing a song called The Great Big Sky.
Elbows [A] on the windowsill
[E] My [B] head against the pane
[C#] Seen [F#] so [A] many grow and die
[E] But you forget [B] most of their names
[E] So fire [F#] that arrow [A] to the great big sky
[E] And hope it [B] never comes down
[C#m] Unless you're [A] coming with [E] it
It's better with [B] you around
I [C#m] [A]
[E] [B]
[C#m] [G#m] [A]
[E] [B]
[E] could drink [A] myself to death tonight
[E] Or I could stand and [B] give a toast
[C#m] To those who [A] made it out alive
[E] With you I'm [B] just the most
[E] But tonight I'll [A] see my sweetheart
[E] I got a fifty [B] dollar bill
[C#m] Somewhere [A] in her weak heart
[E] She knows I [B] never will
[C#m] Oh, [A]
[E] I'm just hiding
[B] True [C#m] love
[A]
[E] Watch [B]
[C#m] [A]
[E] the sky
[B]
Right [C#m] [A]
[E] behind you
[B]
From [E] a tiny roof up on Smith Hill
It's easy to [B] disappear
It's [C#m] easy to run off [A] hiding
[E] [B]
[E] I can't stand [A] to face the facts
[E] It's only an easier [B] hurt
[C#m] I don't care much for [A] what you have to [E] say
But I'd like to know [B] what you heard
Oh, [C#m] [A]
[E] I'm just [B]
hiding True [C#m] love
[A]
[E] Watch [B]
[C#m] the [A]
[E] sky
Right behind you
[B]
[C#m] From a [A] tiny
[E] roof up on Smith Hill
[A] It's easy to run off [E] hiding
I

[E] can't [D] stand to face the facts
