[Intro]
G C

Em                                 C                       G
Well, as a child I mostly spoke inside my head
Em                                        C                         G
I had conversations with the clouds, the dogs, the dead
Em                                                       C                            G
And they thought my broken, that my tongue was coated lead
               D                          C                                Em
But I just couldn't make my words make sense to them
                  D                      C                        G
If you only listen with your ears... I can't get in

Em                                             C                        G
And I spent my evenings pullin' stars out of the sky
Em                                         C                            G
And I'd arrange them on the lawn where I would lie
Em                                        C                          G
And in the wind I'd taste the dreams of distant lives
                   D                        C                              Em
And I would dress myself up in them through the night
               D                                C                                         G
While my folks would sleep in separate beds... and wonder why

Em                                             C                     G
And through them days I was a ghost atop my chair
Em                                  C                       G
My dad considered me a cross he had to bear
Em                                 C                    G
And in my head I'd sing apologies and stare
           D                               C                          Em
As my mom would hang the clothes across the line
                        D                      C                         G
And she would try to keep the empty... from her eyes

Em                                     C                    G
So, then one afternoon I dressed myself alone
Em                                        C                 G
I packed my pillowcase with everything I owned
Em                                C                              G
And in my head I said "goodbye," then I was gone
          D                    C                Em
And I set out on the heels of the unknown
           D                           C                       Em
So my folks could have a new life of their own
               D                  C
So that maybe I could find someone
                  D                    C                   G
Who could hear the only words that I'd known
