          Em7                 
There's a river that parts the 
                 G
valley of this town

Em7                         
Following the road up to your 
  G
father's farm

     Em7                          
Your rosy lungs were empty on the 
G
day that you were born

    Em7                         
And no one thought you'd make it 
            G
past the morning

     Em7
Your brother said your mother

Was a firefly you buried in the 
   G
earth

    Em7
And every night, the fire light

Warms the tender bits of skin 
   G
beneath your shirt

    Em7                            
The climbing constellations move in
   G
 semi-tones

    Em7                            
And set behind the county line in a
                        G
 melody of gravitation
