Em G7
Well, we watched the starlings fly,
Am7 Cadd9
Around the burnt-down pier, and I
Em G7 Am7 Cadd9
Spilled my coffee on my sleeve,
Em G7
She wiped it with a smile,
Am7 Cadd9
And told me I was juvenile,
Em G7 Am7 Cadd9
And kissed me softly on my cheek
Em Am7
And her hair danced in the breeze,
Cadd9 G7
Like a thousand swinging trees,
Em Am7 G7
In a forest lying next to stormy seas
Em G7
Well, we watched the wintry sky,
Am7 Cadd9
Turn a shade of turquoise, I,
Em G7 Am7 Cadd9
Whispered softly, "I feel lost, "
Em G7
She turned with laughing eyes,
Am7 Cadd9
And curled her lips towards the sky,
Em G7 Am7 Cadd9
And said, "get your map out, then, you knob!"
Em Am7
And we laughed like a pair of fools,
Cadd9 G7
Like kids, they laugh at school,
Em Am7 G7
And we wandered home before the day brought dusk
Starlings accords
