Sometimes Just The Sky

Mary Chapin Carpenter

Key:
C Em C Em G D (2x) [Verse]
C Noises in my head
Em And endless should-haves rain
G On me like a storm
D Like a hurricane
C Losses piled up like wood
Em Stacked stories high
G Feels like I've been framed
D I have no alibi [Chorus]
C Used to be that all I needed
G D Was what I didn't possess
C Yearning makes you who you
G D End up as, more or less
C Whatever choice I made that worked out
Em Was just a lucky guess
G D Just a lucky guess

[Verse]
C Adventures half-discarded
Em Half held onto now
G dancing on the ledge
D To the edge somehow
C I can still pick out the faces
Em Though I forget the names
G And places that I've gone
D But the urge remains [Chorus]
C To throw caution to the wind
G D Or is it to the stars?
C To hold out my open hands
G D Despite my empty arms
C To wear my heart down on my sleeve
Em Just like a battle scar
G D These are battle scars [Bridge]
C Em G D C Em G D C [Verse]
C There's comfort in a late night
Em Kitchen's radio
G And in a letter sent
D Lists of what you know
C When you don't know anything
Em You make another one
G It's good to write it down
D Starting with the sun [Chorus]
C And sometimes church bells, trees and seasons
G D Marking times gone by
C Sometimes starlings swell, some tidal moons
G D And filled up eyes
C Sometimes everything at once
Em But sometimes just the sky
G D Sometimes just the sky
