Constellations Jack Johnson
Capo 1st fret
When playing a G in the verses, you can hammer on the 5th fret of the high E
string some to make it sound better
[G]The light was leaving and the west it was blue
[C]The children's laughter sang
[G]And skipping just like the stones they threw
[C]Their voices echoed across the way
[Dsus2]It's getting late
[G]It was [F]just another[C] night
With a [D]sunset
And a [G]moonrise [F]not so far[C] behind
To give us j[D]ust enough light
To l[G]ay down u[F]nderneath the [C]stars
Listen to[D] papa's translations
[G]Of the s[F]tories across the[C] sky
We drew our o[D]wn constellations
( Tab from: http://www.guitartabs.cc/tabs/j/jack_johnson/constellations_crd_ver_2.html )
[G]The west winds often last too long
[C]The wind may calm down nothing ever feels the same
[G]Sheltered under the Kamani tree
[C]Waiting for the passing rain
[G]Clouds keep moving to uncover the scene
[C]Stars above us chasing the day away
[G]To find the stories that we sometimes need
[C]Listen close enough
[Dsus2]All else fades, fades away
[G]It was [F]just another[C] night
With a [D]sunset
And a [G]moonrise [F]not so far[C] behind
To give us j[D]ust enough light
To l[G]ay down u[F]nderneath the [C]stars
Listen to[D] papa's translations
[G]Of the s[F]tories across the[C] sky
We drew our o[D]wn constellations
