Firmament

                  A
So my heart did a back flip
  E
I guess that's what they'd say
         G#7                       
I hadn't seen her since high school
       C#m         Bm
 graduation
             A
I brought my old hopes
      E
She brought her fiancé
       G#7              
And we shared some inane 
        C#m        Bm
conversation


[Chorus]
        A                    
Just as beautiful, oh just as 
 E
charming.
      B7                        E 
But lord, what is this new 
     E7
dimension
             A          E
She has the dignity of a life not 
for me
F#7                   B
Plans that I needed a wrench in
  A                A#dim
I guess it goes to show
            E/B        Cdim7   C#m
Something a young man ought to know
 D              A        E
Angels are just people too


[Verse 2]
Continúa después del anuncio
           A
In my dark ages
     E
When I was the earth
       G#7               C#m
And my universe spun out around
Bm             A
They lined the firmament
      E
These angels of mine
  G#7                         
So pretty, and so far from the 
  C#m        Bm
ground


[Chorus]
                A                  
They're just as beautiful, oh just 
   E
as charming
    B7                     E      
But lord, what is this new 
    E7
dimension
              A            E
They have the dignity of a life not 
for me
F#7                   B
Plans that I needed a wrench in
      A                A#dim
And I guess it goes to show
            E/B                C#m
Something a young man ought to know
  D             A        E
Angels are just people too


[Bridge]
    Bm         A             
And oh, when I smashed out the 
  E
pedestal
F#m                 C#m
What a pleasant surprise
Bm                       A       
Here they all were, just half of 
    E
the world
F#7                          B7
Only holy through my teenage eyes


[Chorus]
                A            
Just as beautiful, oh just as 
         E
charming
       B7                    E    
But lord, what is this new 
   E7
dimension
         A            E
Inconceivable, that a girl could be 
more
F#7                   B
Than a foil for my romantic 
pretensions
      A                A#dim
So I guess it goes to show
            E/B       Cdim7    C#m
Something a young man ought to know
  D             A        E
Angels are just people too


[Otro]
    A             A#dim       E/B
And now I finally know what I 
                C#m
should have long ago
        D                 A      E
Thank god, they're just people, too
