[F] [G] [C] [Gm] [F]
I’ve got [F]miles of regrets and confusing friends
But per[G]haps it’s just my stupid [C]head in the end
Thinking [Gm]should I wait here or make my way home
You [F]said go (you said go)


[F]Making up problems that don’t exist
[G]Why do I let myself [C]dream like this
We’re [Gm]floating away, my body’s in space
[F]We are going home


[F]Missing [C]pieces [Dm]of my [A#]skull
I’ll [F]sew on [C]patches of [Dm]my own [A#]soul
There’s [F]nothing you or [C]I can do so [Dm]let the [A#]stars fall [F]
Cause from up [C]here the sky’s my [Dm]thoughts and we’re all [A#]so


[F]Small [G] [C] [Gm] [F]


[F]Meteor shower, quick, take cover
But the [G]hues in our hair compli[C]ment one another
I’d [Gm]sell my own bones for sapphire stones
Cause [F]blue’s your favorite color


[F]Missing [C]pieces [Dm]of my [A#]skull
I’ll [F]sew on [C]patches of [Dm]my own [A#]soul
There’s [F]nothing you or [C]I can do so [Dm]let the [A#]stars fall [F]
Cause from up [C]here the sky’s my [Dm]thoughts and we’re all [A#]so


[Dm]Small, we’re all [A#]so [F] [C] [A]


My [Dm]heart and the earth share the same rule
It [A#]starts with Love and it ends with U
But [F]don’t go outside, it’s dangerous tonight
With[C]out me right here by [A]your [Dm]side


Take it slow, you’ll [A#]know
Which way to [F]go, ew up your skull
Take your [C]time, and we’ll [A]be just


[F]Fine [C] [Dm] [A#] [F] [C] [Dm] [A#]
[F]Missing [C]pieces [Dm]of my [A#]skull
I’ll [F]sew on [C]patches of [Dm]my own [A#]soul
