[Intro]
---------------------
C7sus4/F | Em11/D | C7sus4/F | Em11/D 
C7sus2/D | D7sus4 

[Verse 1]
---------------------
C7sus2/D D7sus4        C7sus4/F         Em11/D
               I could never build the ether
       C7sus4/F         Em11/D
Or the grass   overgrown
        C7sus2/D        D7sus4
I could never build the river
       C7sus2/D        D7sus4
With a mouthful of foam
        D7sus4/G
I could never build the winter
         Emadd11/A
With her cold     tears of glitter
            C7sus4/F            Em11/D
I’ve been listening to the red      oak
        C7sus4/F       Em11/D
And the acorn she cries
C7sus2/D              D7sus4
Listening to the white      birch
        C7sus2/D       D7sus4
And the paper she dries
            Gmadd11
I’ve been listening to the frog’s joke
Emadd11/A
Listening to the firesmoke

[Chorus (1)]
---------------------
      C7sus4/F          Em11/D
I can never tell you now
             C7sus4/F       Em11/D
What I’d often said before
        C7sus2/D        D7sus4
Because promise is a pendulum
     C7sus2/D            D7sus4
Just swinging at the door
              Gmadd11             D7sus4/G
And I’m not saying I’m not jealous    
   Gmadd11       D7sus4/G
Or scared anymore
              Emadd11/A Emadd9/A
I’m just saying      

[Verse 2]
---------------------
Emadd11/A Emadd9/A        C7sus4/F      Em11/D
                  I could never build a rainbow
   C7sus4/F          Em11/D
Or any kind of flower
        C7sus2/D         D7sus4
I could never make a sparrow
     C7sus2/D     D7sus4
Or a meteor shower
        D7sus4/G
I could never build an earthworm
      Emadd11/A
Could never make the earth turn
            C7sus4/F              Em11/D
I’ve been listening to the laughing
       C7sus4/F              Em11/D
Of the fox     down the trail
            C7sus2/D        D7sus4
I’ve been clasping to the listening
       C7sus2/D            D7sus4
Of the moss    to the snail
    Gmadd11
The shimmer of the beech leaves
                Emadd11/A
As the wind does         a big sneeze

[Chorus (2)]
---------------------
      C7sus4/F          Em11/D
I can never tell you now
             C7sus4/F       Em11/D
What I’d often said before
        C7sus2/D        D7sus4
Because promise is a pendulum
     C7sus2/D            D7sus4
Just swinging at the door
                 Gmadd11          D7sus4/G
And I’m not saying I’m not jealous    
   Gmadd11
Or scared anymore
              Emadd11/A Emadd9/A
I’m just saying      

[Verse 3]
---------------------
Emadd11/A Emadd9/A        C7sus4/F           Em11/D
                  I could never build the shadow
             C7sus4/F            Em11/D
Between your cheek   and your eye
        C7sus2/D         D7sus4
I could never make a freckle   
       C7sus2/D               D7sus4
Or the warm    breath you sigh
       D7sus4/G
In the canopy of lashes
         Emadd11/A
With the softness of ashes
            C7sus4/F         Em11/D
I’ve been listening to the memory
    C7sus4/F           Em11/D
The way     that it was
C7sus2/D          D7sus4     C7sus2/D           D7sus4
Listening to the echo of whys        and because
Gmadd11
Listening to the echo
Emadd11/A
Telling  me to let go

[Chorus (3)]
---------------------
        C7sus4/F          Em11/D
I could never tell you now
             C7sus4/F       Em11/D
What I’d often said before
        C7sus2/D        D7sus4
Because promise is a pendulum
     C7sus2/D           D7sus4
Just hanging at the door
              Gmadd11             D7sus4/G
And I’m not saying I’m not jealous    
   Gmadd11       D7sus4/G
Or scared anymore
           Emadd11/A Emadd9/A
I’m just saying   

[Outro]

Emadd11/A Emadd9/A Emadd11/A Emadd9/A
                   Saying
