Countdowns

      Eb        Ab             Eb
I am happy, I am thankful and I am 
proud
            Eb        Ab          
Said with a smile for the cameras 
       Eb
at the countdown
   Fm      Cm           Ab       
But if I'm honest, I am seconds 
      Eb
from breaking down
         Cm    Ab                 
As you orbit, gravity throws me to
    Eb
 the ground

[Chorus]
        Ab
I'll be starry eyed
        Bb
I'll be starry eyed
         Ab    Bb       Eb
I'll be starry eyed for you

[Verse 2]
            Eb             Ab     
I brush the dust off, gain 
            Eb
composure for another round
         Eb              Ab       
When did my life become a series 
   Eb
of countdowns?
   Fm      Cm           Ab       
I curse the heavens for pulling 
   Eb
you away from me

         Cm         Ab            
At the same time I pray that 
         Eb
you'll find everything you seek

[Chorus]
           Ab
And I'll be starry eyed
        Bb
I'll be starry eyed
         Ab    Bb       Cm
I'll be starry eyed for you
         Ab    Bb       Eb
I'll be starry eyed for you

[Verse 3]
            Eb             Ab     
The whole world stares up in 
            Eb
wonder at the night sky
         Eb              Ab       
Oh what a marvel to see our dreams
   Eb
 so realized
   Fm      Cm           Ab   
But all these bright lights run 
       Eb
together after a while
                 Cm         
And our blaze of glory turns 
  Ab            Eb
ordinary over night
             Cm         Ab        
Our blaze of glory turns ordinary 
     Eb
over night

[Chorus]
           Ab
But I'll be starry eyed
        Bb
I'll be starry eyed
         Ab    Bb       Cm
I'll be starry eyed for you
         Ab    Bb       Eb
I'll be starry eyed for you

[Verse 4]
    Eb             Ab             
I am happy, I am thankful and I am
    Eb
 proud
            Eb             Ab     
Said with a smile for the cameras 
            Eb
at the countdown
   Fm      Cm                   
But all these bright lights run 
Ab          Eb
together after a while
               Cm           
And our blaze of glory turns 
Ab          Eb
ordinary over night
