(starts around the second repetition of the intro; repeats for most of the song)

[Verse 1]
C
 Gold ran the autumn sky
G
 And often we would fly
F
 Above
G
 Arms out on the freezing sun
C
 Our jackets held us warm
G
 As dancing leaves would form
F
 Walls
G
 We'd take each others hands and we would run

[Break]
C   G   F   G   x2

[Verse 2]
C
 Goodbyes and see you soons
G
 Most every afternoon
F
 Made
G
 The lonely nights a bit easier to take
C
 You took a downward bend
G
 Night swung you back again
F
 Learn
G
 It takes a lot to watch a person break

[Break]
C   G   F   G   x2

[Chorus]
Am                   F
 Those lakes of ours drying up
C                    Em
 Even though we kept trying, trying
Am                  F
 Smooth hands that I'd been stripped of
C                            E
 I knew the ground till I was flying, flying
Am                   F
 Those lakes of ours drying up
C                    Em
 Even though we kept trying, trying
Am                  F
 Smooth hands that I'd been stripped of
C                            E
 I knew the ground till I was flying, flying

[Verse 3]
C                                      G
 Gold ran the autumn sky
                    Every inch that we grew
G                                 F
 And often we would fly
             And everything that we'd do
F            G
 Above
     Planted seeds
G                                C
 Arms out on the freezing sun
                  Throughout the weeds
C                                           G
 Our jackets held us warm
                     And when It reached the sky
G                                    F
 As dancing leaves would form
                       It was a mile high
F                   G
 Walls
    And I'll always know
G                                                    C
 We'd take each others hands and we would run
                                      There’s ground below
