[Intro 1]
[D][A][D][Bm][D][Bm][D]
[G][A]
[D]Boy threw

[Verse 1]
his
guitar down and started beating his brow,
no matter [G]how [Em]hard he tried
he [D]couldn't [Em]justify.[D]
All a waste of time spent in
[Bm]venting word[D]s and rhyme,
as [Bm]the stars [G]and [Bm]the planets
[D]and the clock did laps.

[Verse 2]
[D]
You see making up songs is for losers.
I should build [Bm]something [D]she uses,
like a [Bm]box or a bed or cup
[Em]boards [A]or shelves.
'Cause [D]songs are made of air,
they can't be any use to her.
Better [G]off [Bm]try'na catch falling
[A]aeroplanes.[D]

[Interlude 1]
[D][Bm]
[D][G][D][G]
[A][D]

[Verse 3]
Then girl [Bm]said:
“Boy don't be so stupid,
boy don't be so [E]daft,
You're not [D]even right by half.
And al[A]though you say your songs
are fundamentally air,
there's also thousands of vi
[D]brations that stimulate the [A]ear.

[Verse 4]
In [A]such a way that whenever I hear them
they [D]always make me smile.
[Bm]They're just as [D]tactile as a [Bm]box or a
bed or [G]cupboards [Em]or sh[A]elves.
So [D]boy now stop your moping,
cursing and no hoping,
and [G]get back in [A]the [D]sad[Bm]dle.”

[Verse 5]
While she was still speaking, [Bm]Towards
his feet [E]reaching,
[D]where lay his guitar.
His head was swim[Bm]ming in an alphabet,
soup letters [E]swirled and words
[G]formed in his [Bm]heart.[G]

[Verse 6]
[G]He said:
“I'm gonna [D]build a song for us,
With four verses and a chorus.
On [G]real [Bm]estate your [G]words in[A]spired.
And [D]there we'll live rent- free,
sleep on beds of melody,
and leave the [G]key- change
[D]with [A]the [D]seasons.”

[Verse 7]
And so that song he built was hers,
with a chorus [D]an d four verse.
And she woke to find [D]him fi[A]nally asleep.
