_ [G] _ _ _ _ _
For [Em] what in life do you [D] feel most grateful?
I'd say, I don't know, family, like having a relationship with family.
It is pretty cool to be able to see, _ taste, smell, _ touch, and to feel so much emotion through those things.
I am very thankful [E] for air conditioning, specifically, because every time I'm with it,
if I'm hot and it's cooling me down, I just can't believe [C] that it exists in that of it. _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _
I feel like we've accomplished a lot of things, but there's also an underlying knowing of achieving a specific event is not the point. _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _
[D] The [C] _ _ [Am] biggest feeling of success [G] is being aware, [C] keeping alive, and awake, and feeling in ourselves,
[Am] like how you can bring certain things to light [G] in each other [G] or in yourself.
Whoa, what, you feel that?
Well, it makes me feel this, this, and then suddenly you're just in a [Am] different plane of awareness.
_ _ [A] _ _
_ _ [C] Alternate, sharing something that you consider a positive [Am] characteristic [G] about_ _ _
_ [C] Someone do one for [Am] me. _
_ _ [C] Also, James' ability to release some things that would [G] be hard for me to let go [A] of, or, you know, just like [C] water under the bridge.
One thing I admire about Buck is his unhesitating openness to [G] jumping into situations.
This one time we were on [Am] a beach, and then I was looking at Buck, and I was saying, man, [C] it's so amazing.
How do you do this thing where you build things, and it's like you want [A] something, you have an idea, and [C] then you do it.
The initiative is really strong.
I said, how do you do it?
And he looked at me, and he was like, my dad told me when I was young.
He said, if you want something, you just [C#] build it.
And we were both like, oh my God, you [C] just build it.
And it made so much sense.
So [G] simple.
_ _ [F] _
_ _ [C] _ _ Max's [F] certain type of [C] playfulness.
It's like [G] in touch with the purest form of play, like how you can [F] play, like play with me, play with someone you meet.
[C]
Play in the sense [G] of unlocking other people's childlike [A] curiosity in [G] nature, like immediately.
Like I've seen it happen with people you meet, like people who [C] might_
You don't even know.
[G] You don't even have a chance to see if they are guarded, because [C] I've seen you just sort of dispel it just by being yourself.
I'd like to say something [G] about Annie. _
Your bravery, you have a very strong, powerful _ engine.
It basically is about being present.
It's something that's almost [C] like breathing for you. _
The things that [G#m] you do with music, _ you do with other things also. _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _
I think Adrian is a talented excavator.
Instead of just being like, oh, I feel all this and it sucks, or I feel all this and it's so much, it's like, I feel all of it, now I'm going to explore it.
And it happens to be through music. _ _ _ _
_ [E] It's not the [G#m] energy reeling, [B] nor the lines.
We have conversations where we [Em] think, okay, this is pretty intense.
And then we're like, but [G] beneath that even, there's this going on.
And then we backtrack ten more years and we're like, whoa, okay. _

_ _ [C] Crisp fall, like kind of mushy houses.
I feel like the smell of, I was _ born and raised in Tel Aviv, in Israel.
So every time I come back, I land, I can [E] smell the smells.
Summer, it smells like water coming up your nose because it's [D#] humid.
_ _ And also, I have family in the States, my grandma, my aunt, my uncle.
So I used to come every year since I was a baby.
So coming to the States was also part of the smell of childhood.
Every time I'd land, I'd be like, in [G] my idea, it was like, ah, the land of fun, of snow, [N] of presence.
Mine smelled like ladybugs because I had an infestation of ladybugs in my room.
And it was like, we'd have to vacuum, I feel bad about this, but we had to vacuum rows of them.
Like _ mowing a lawn almost, because they would cover the ceiling.
And I remember the smell, like, like _ this really wild smell.
Yeah, that's_
A thousand ladybugs, Bernie.
Whoa. _ _
What's that?
