[C9]Out on some borderline[Em9]
[F/G]Some mark of in between[C]
[C9]I lay down golde[G]n in ti[Bb/Eb]me
[C]And woke up vani[G]shing
[A/D]Sweet bird you a[C/F]re[G] [C]
[C9]Briefer than a falling s[G]tar
[C9]All these vain promises on beaut[G]y jars

[C9]You must be laughing

[C9]Calendars of our li[G]ves
[C9]Circled with comprom[G]ise
[F/G]Sweet bird of time and change
[C9]You must be laughing
[G]Up on your feathers laug[C9]hing

[C9]Golden in time[Em9]
[F/G]Cities under the s[C]and
[C9]Power ideals and b[Em9]eauty
[Bb/Eb]Fading in everyo[C9]ne's hand[G]

[C9]Out here on this horizon l[G]ine
[F/G]With the earth spinning
[C9]And the sky forever rushi[G]ng
[A/D]No one k[C/F]nows[G] [C]
[C9]They can never get that cl[G]ose
[C9]Guesses at mos[G]t
[C9]Guesses based on what each set of time and change is touching[Em9]
