[Verse]
E              A      Am
  Evening, the sky is glowing
     E            A        Am
Underneath us the grass is slowing down
E         A      Am     E
   On its way up to the sun
A Am

E       A      Am
  Lying around devoting time
   E            A     Am
To watching the stars exploding off
     E     A      Am
Into space one by one

E  A  Am

[Chorus]
               E       G#        A       Am
 Takes me to a distant place and time
                E          G#     A      Am
This is not the first time I have pined
             E       G#       A      Am
Puts me in a distant state of mind
                E          G#     A    Am
This is not the first time I have pined
       E      A   Am
I pine away

E  A  Am  x4

[Verse]
E            A     Am
  I love the older people
     E                 A        Am
They seem to live in a world of simple life
E       A      Am              E A    Am
  Where simple pleasures still belong
E       A     Am
  Years past, they contemplated
E         A         Am
  How the world was less complicated
E     A       Am        E    A  Am
Years before they came along

[Chorus]
               E       G#        A       Am
 Takes me to a distant place and time
                E          G#     A      Am
This is not the first time I have pined
             E       G#       A      Am
Puts me in a distant state of mind
                E          G#     A    Am
This is not the first time I have pined

[Verse]
             E
I pine after my home, my yard

The olden days, the faraway

The stars that rain over it all

I pine away

E       A      Am
  Lying around devoting time
   E            A     Am
To watching the stars exploding off
     E     A      Am
Into space one by one

E  A  Am

[Chorus]
               E       G#        A       Am
 Takes me to a distant place and time
                E          G#     A      Am
This is not the first time I have pined
             E       G#       A      Am
Puts me in a distant state of mind
                E          G#     A    Am
This is not the first time I have pined
       E      A   Am
I pine away
