C
High rise, veins of the avenue
                                     Am
Bright eyes and subtle variations of blue.
Everywhere balanced there like a rainbow above you.
C
Street lights glisten on the boulevard.
                                   Am
And cold nights make staying alert so hard.
For heaven’s sake, keep me awake so
                        F
I won’t be caught off guard.
Clearly I am a passerby but I’ll find a place to
Dm
stay.
F             G                       C
Dear pacific day, won’t you take me away?

Small town, hearts of the New Year
Brought down by gravity, crystal clear
City fog and brave dialogue converge
on the frontier
Make haste, I feel your heartbeat
With new taste for speed out on the street
Find a road to a humble abode where
both of our routes meet
The silver sound is all around and
the colors fall like snow
The feeling of letting go, I guess we'll never know

Chorus:
C
Cheer up and dry your damp eyes
Am
And tell me when it rains
Dm
And I’ll blend up that rainbow above you
Am                          G
And shoot it through your veins.
C
Cause your heart has a lack of color.
Am
And we should’ve known
Dm
That we’d grow up sooner or later
F               G                   C
Cause we wasted all our free time alone.

Your nerves gather with the altitude
Exhale the stress so you don't come unglued
Somewhere there is a happy affair
A ghost of a good mood
Wide eyed, panic on the getaway
The high tide could take me so far away
VCR's and motorcars unite on the Seventh Day
A popular gauge will measure
the rage of the new Post-Modern Age
'Cause somewhere along the line
all the decades align

Am            G        C
We were the crashing whitecaps.
F
On the ocean (on the ocean).
Am             G       C   G#  D# F
What a lovely seaside holiday, away.
    G             Am       F
A palm tree in Christmas lights.
My emotion.
Am                  G            C   Dm
Struck a sparkling tone like a xylophone.
    F            G    C
As we spent the day alone.
