Cmaj7                   G
She don't run from the sun no more
Cmaj7                     G
She boxed her shadow and she won
           Cmaj7
Said I can see you laugh
                G
Through these bottle caps
          Cmaj7
And this wire around my neck aint 
           G
There for fun
 
     D
But someday we'll all be old
             C
And I'll be so damn beautiful
 
          G                C
Meanwhile I hide my head
              Am          C
Here in this paper...bag
            G         C
Cause if I cant see you
      Am                C
Then you can't see me
           G    C
And it'll be okay
            Am       C
Fly little bee....away
           G              C
To where theres no more rain
    Am           C
And I can be me
 
Yeah they talk about her
She smiles like shes so tough
She says
"hey can you talk a little louder,
I don't think my heart
is broken enough"
 
But someday we'll all be old
And I'll be so damn beautiful
 
          G          C
Meanwhile I hide my head
              Am           C
Here in this paper...bag
            G        C
Cause if I cant see you

           G    C
And it'll be okay
            Am     C
Fly little bee....away
           G              C
To where theres no more rain
    Am         C
And I can be me
 
 Am
Some days I wait in the indigo
 C
Singing that song on the radio
 G                            D
I blame these puddles on the rain
 Am
You know I gotta keep these cheeks dry today
 C
Gotta keep my cheating strategy
 G                          D
And baby I'm gonna have it made.
 
     Am
But someday we'll all be old
             C
And I'll be so damn beautiful
 
          G         C
Meanwhile I hide my head
              Am       C

The Cmaj7 chord doesn't sound right in here.. But this isn't a completly wrong tab.

I think it sounds better/more simple with Cmajor instead of Cmajor7, but Cmaj7 doesn't sound wrong. The chorus sounds fine to me, also. (This is all on a piano, however).
