One, two, three, four
 
G
Underneath the lilac tree, I close my eyes and suddenly
C
I'm ten years old and running through, An open field chasing after you
G
Sounds of summer fill my ears, If I live 10,000 years
C
I'll never feel as good as this, Moments before our first kiss
 
Em
There is nothing to demand, No algebra to understand
Am                           D7
Just sunlight on a freckled face
Am                 C          D7
And everything in its right place
 
G
Simple things turn magical, Minutes freeze like Popsicles
C
And drip their seconds down our shirts, I love you so much it hurts
G
There's no such thing as real time, I've been yours and you've been mine
C
And we've lived ever happily, Everywhere I've been you've been with me
 
Em
There is nothing to control, No question mark left on our souls
Am                           D7
Just sunlight on a freckled face
Em
There is nothing to demand, No politics to understand
Am                            D7
Just sunlight on a freckled face
Am                        D7
Everything in its right place
Am             C          D7
Everything in its right place
 
(Arpeggiating)
G                                   D7
And I want to give you a brand new sky
               G                             D7
Something so open, it brings tears to your eyes
                   G                       D7
So clear and so present, it doesn't seem real
                G                    D7
I want to show you how you make me feel
 
G                                D7
I want to give you a brand new dream
                      G                  D7
Where two horses drink from a silver stream
                     G                    D7
As the trees catch fire they lift their heads
                                G                D7
And bolt together through the forest across our beds
 
G                                   D7
I want to bring you the fields of flowers
            G                 D7
I want to build you Eiffel Towers
                          G                     D7
Take the clouds in the evening, turn 'em into stars
                    G                       D7
And drop 'em like keys through your prison bars
Set you free, yeah
