There was a man back in '95 
     A           Aadd2 
Whose heart ran out of summers  
    Asus4    A      F#m 
But before he died, I asked him  
  
Wait, what's the sense in life 
          D     D2      Esus4 E 
Come over me, Come over me 
A  
He said, 
 A2               Asus4     A  
Son why you got to sing that tune  
          A      Aadd2       Asus4          A 
Catch a Dylan song or some eclipse of the moon 
          F#m 
Let an angel swing and make you swoon 
         D      D2     Esus4   E 
Then you will see... You will see 
      D 
Then he said,

Did you learn anything cause in the world today 
             F#m          F#m7     
You can't live in a castle far away 
        D      D2        Esus4    E 
Now talk to me, come talk to me 
  
He said,  
A          Aadd2           Asus4     A 
Dad I'm big but we're smaller than small 
       A         Aadd2            Asus      A

                 F#m                          F#m7

So play with me, come play with me

There are secrets that we still have left to find 
D             E                A             G

As I look into my angel's eyes 
  F#m  7                            D 
A song plays on while the moon is hiding over me 
               E 
Something comes over me 
A          Aadd2      Asus        A  
I guess we're big and I guess we're small 
       A           Aadd2           Asus       A 
If you think about it man you know we got it all            F#m7 
Cause we're all we got on this bouncing ball
