Gm                               G          C C / Fm
Well, as a child I mostly spoke inside my head
Gm                               G                 C  C / Fm
I had conversations with the clouds, the dogs, the dead
Gm                                             G      C
And they thought my broken, that my tongue was coated lead
           C                G                    Gm
But I just couldn't make my words make sense to them
            C                G                   C C / Fm      
If you only listen with your ears... I can't get in
Gm                                         G    C  C / Fm
And I spent my evenings pullin' stars out of the sky
Gm                                  G          C   C /Fm
And I'd arrange them on the lawn where I would lie
Gm                                       G          C
And in the wind I'd taste the dreams of distant lives
            C                       G              Gm
And I would dress myself up in them through the night
         C                                   G          C
While my folks would sleep in separate beds... and wonder why

Gm                                         G C C / Fm
And through them days I was a ghost atop my chair
Gm                              G      C  C / Fm
My dad considered me a cross he had to bear
Gm                            G           C
And in my head I'd sing apologies and stare
      C                               G        Gm
As my mom would hang the clothes across the line
                     C              G            C C  /Fm
And she would try to keep the empty... from her eyes
Gm                                     G   C C / Fm
So, then one afternoon I dressed myself alone
Gm                                   G     C C / Fm
I packed my pillowcase with everything I owned
Gm                                 G        C
And in my head I said "goodbye," then I was gone
               C              G         Gm
And I set out on the heels of the unknown
      C                           G        Gm
So my folks could have a new life of their own
        C             G
So that maybe I could find someone
          C                G              C
Who could hear the only words that I'd known
woo's
