Once Upon a Playground Rainy Poets of the Fall
[Intro]
[G#m] [E] [F#] [C#] [E] [B] [F#] [C#]
[Verse 1]
[G#m] Hello old [E]lovers of [F#]mine
My [C#]little boy [E]wishes
Of [B]fortune's [F#]kisses
Now [C#]dreams cast [G#m]aside
In the [E]fading [F#]light
Your [C#]crown of [E]thorns
[B]Becomes a [F#]halo
Of [C#]branching [G#m]horns
[E] [F#] And yet so [C#]beautif[E]ul
[B] [F#]
[Cborus]
I [C#]see you gently[G#m] swaying
In a [E]sea of [F#]seesaws
Slumming in the [E]shack
Tony [B]built last [F#]year
I know you'll be [G#m]holding
[E]Court with [F#]jackdaws
Crying when n[E]obody
Ever [B]sees your t[F#]ears
When n[C#]o one sees your [G#m]tears
[E] [F#] [C#] [E] [B] [F#] [C#]
[G#m] [E] [F#] [C#] [E] [B] [F#] [C#]
[Verse 2]
[G#m] What used to [E]fly us from [F#]here
To the [C#]stratospher[E]e?
What [B]became of our [F#]passion
Is there n[C#]o one who [G#m]cares?
Hear the [E]soft minor [F#]key
Of the on[C#]e-time [E]me
Still the [B]acrob[F#]at
With my [C#]heart on my [G#m]sleeve
[E] [F#] And it's so [C#]beautif[E]ul
[B] [F#]
[Cborus]
I [C#]see you gently[G#m] swaying
In a [E]sea of [F#]seesaws
Slumming in the [E]shack
Tony [B]built last [F#]year
I know you'll b[G#m]e holding
[E]Court with [F#]jackdaws
Crying when n[E]obody
Ever [B]sees your t[F#]ears
When n[C#]o one sees your [G#m]tears
[Coda]
[C#]Out back
[C#]When the gates are closed
F# (9 fret)
Like a pitiful skeleton pose
[C#]We held our first line of defense
[C#]Saw our likeness
F# (9 fret)
And it made no sense
[C#]Toy soldiers in the muck and dirt
F# (9 fret)
Salvation in your every word
[C#]Lost in the fray of everyday
[Cborus]
[C#]I see you gent[G#m]ly swaying
In a [E]sea of [F#]seesaws
Slumming in the [E]shack
Tony [B]built last [F#]year
I know you'll b[G#m]e holding
[E]Court with [F#]jackdaws
Crying when n[E]obody
Ever [B]sees your t[F#]ears
When n[C#]o one sees your [G#m]tears
[Outro]
[G#m] You're still [E]fighting, [F#]I see
Like a m[C#]odern day B[E]ruce Lee
S[B]tanding p[F#]roud in this p[C#]arody
