Hello, it's me!
[D#] [B] It's kind of a gross rainy day today, and I'm supposed to be working on more important
stuff, but true to form, instead I'm in my PJs and I want to cover a song that I was
supposed to do like two years ago.
Like two whole years ago I planned to do [A] this and I never did, and that is me in a nutshell.
So we're just going to keep it nice and simple today.
[E] October [Am] throws herself before [D] my feet, [Em] and the sky goes powder [E] blue, holding her breath for me.
I never [A] thought myself a city [D] shoe, [E] but it's made of gold [Am] today, and it breaks [E] my heart in two.
[F#m] Cause I want to [F] hold onto it, [D] but there's nothing [A] to hold.
[F#m] And the universe [F] is laughing, [C#] [D] cause all a boy can really [E] do is watch a boy unfold.
We were listening [A] to the city [D] hum, and I'm [E] flying perfect [A] in the dark.
[D] I felt you tremble [E] beneath my touch.
Why's it everything [A] I love I [D] can't explain?
[E] Like if the world should [A] disappear, only music [E] will remain.
[F#m] And I want to [F] hold onto it, [D] but there's nothing [A] to hold.
[F#m] And the universe [F] is laughing, [C#]
[D] cause all a boy can really do [E] is watch a boy unfold.
Ah-ah-ah [A]-ah [D]
-ah [E]-ah-ah-ah-ah [A]-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah.
[D] Yeah-ah [E]
[A] [D]

[E] -ah [F#m]-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah.
Cause I want to [C#] hold onto it, [D]
but there's nothing [A] to hold.
[F#m] And the universe [C#] is laughing, [D] cause all a boy can really [E] do is watch a boy unfold.
[F#m] And the galaxies, the [C#] galaxies are howling
[D] The sun and moon are [A] tickle-pickle
[F#m] Yeah, the whole damn [G#] universe is [C#] laughing
[D] Cause all a boy [F#] can really do is watch a boy [E] unfold
