G                       D
When you point at the sky
                      C      D
What you hit will be far away
          G
Funny that
                D
With the naked eye
                      C
You might look at a star and say
           D           Am         D
It's like somebody's playing with us
           Am             D
It's borderline suspicious

Chorus:
   G
As if
                         D
The hum of the heavens above
                        C  Am
Murmurs from the afterglow
             F                      C
Will not be mysteries for all tomorrows
   G
As if
                               D
I'll empty out a lake with a spoon
                           C  Am
Buy a plot of land on the moon
              F
Where we can hide away
                 C
And tend our sorrows

Will you look at the time?
I don't know what
Got over me
Yes, I do
Hope you don't mind
I'll be off
Momentarily
For me to intrude
In this way
Highly unusual
You might say

Chorus:
As if
Like a shirt worn thin through the years
I'll let you down the moment I tear
I can assure you
That won't happen ever
As if
You're standing
On the edge of a cliff
Unaware your footing might slip
I won't be there to push you back
Forever

As if
The hum of the heavens above
Murmurs from the afterglow
Will not be mysteries for all tomorrows
As if
I'll empty out a lake with a spoon
Buy a plot of land on the moon
Where we can hide away
And tend our sorrows

   G
As if
   D
As if
   C  Am
As if
   F  C
As if
   G
As if
   D
As if
   C  Am
As if
   F  C
As if
