Gm D# I lay in the forest amongst the butterflies and the fireflies Gm And the burning horses and the flaming trees D# As a spiral of children climb up to the sun Gm Waving goodbye to you and goodbye to me F As the past pulls away and the future begins Cm D# I say goodbye to all that as the future rolls in F Like a wave, like a wave Gm And the past, with its savage undertow, lets go Chorus: D# F Come on, everyone, come on, everyone Gm A spiral of children climbs up to the sun D# F To the sun, to the sun, and on each golden rung Gm D# F Gm A spiral of children climbs up to the sun And a man called Jesus, He promised He would leave us With a word that would light up the night, oh, the night But the stars hang from threads and blink off one by one And it isn't any fun, no, it isn't any fun To be standing here alone with nowhere to be With a man mad with grief and on each side a thief And everybody hanging from a tree, from a tree And everybody hanging from a tree Chorus There is nothing more valuable than beauty, they say There is nothing more valuable than love And I lie amongst the leaves and the burning trees And the fields of smoke and the black butterflies And the screaming horses and your bright green eyes, so beautiful Ah, your bright green eyes, so beautiful I am here beside you Look for me in the sun I am beside you, I am within In the sunshine, in the sun | TransposeReset Font sizeReset Ukulele Chord DiagramsCm D# F Gm Here you can see detailed diagrams for each ukulele chord used in the song.
