On the Bside of the hill

I was obFserving the birds

Circle Bmin for the kill

I've Ebeen you

Your facAade is a scam

You know you're Emaking me cry

This is the Away that I am

I've been Eliving a lie

A metaAmorphical scheme

EDo you hear the flibbity jibbity jibber jabber

With an Bmoh my god I've got to get out of here

Or I'll have another

EWord to sell

Another story to tell

Another Bmtime piece ringing the bell

Do you hear the clock Estop when you reach the end?

You know it must be Bmnever ending

Comprehend if you can

But when you Etry to pretend to understand

You resemble a fool

Bm Although you're only a man

So give it up and

Bumming a humble clearing from CaEbliguBbla

Every Abtide we're around

Do you Eblike how I walk? Do you Ablike how I talk? (It's a little bit of magic to end the world)

Do you Eblike how my face has learned to Abtick like a clock? But I thought you knew me truly

I have a Ebwonderful life, I know a Abpowerful Bob (Something different than we started with in

the world)

He euloEbgizes me for being Abgeocentric (ha ha ha ha!) Does it even matter to me?

Daisy Fingers

Key: GHard

I Gonce knew a girl who had Cdaisy for fingers

grew Glollipops straight from her Chair.

She Amtraveled by pony and Dnever looked lonely,

my Amfriend she'd insist without cDare.

GCalled all her family, Cspoke mostly harmony,

Gseemed to have it figured out.C

AmPainted in rainbows in Dshades only she knows

aAmround her ideas came to Dsprout.

And Cnow that we are Cmolder, she still Ghaunts me.

Through Cdark and warm she aCmlways wears a Gsmile.

So for yEmou, my Dfriend, a Gsong to Asay,

"I'm Cstill EminspFired Dby Gyou."

I Gasked her how one could be Cpositive and hopeful

when Geverything falls apart.C

"AmLife isn't fair," she said.

"DMake it a fair," she said.

"AmAlways be prepared," she said. D

"To sing."

GLove is invented,

Cand wars are prevented,

Gand we can do anything. C

AmChin up and be it,

for Dthat's what I'll be

when we're Ameighty years young

we'll be Dhere, you'll see

And Cnow that we are Cmolder, she still Ghaunts me.

Through Cdark and warm she aCmlways wears a Gsmile.

So for yEmou, my Dfriend, a Gsong to Asay,

"I'm Cstill EminspFired Dby Gyou."

CSomewhere in the world

she pFlants trials of jellybeans

BbSome leave them be and some Cmtake.

In Ebher eyes she makes a mistFake,

it's now a bGetter place

When Clove finally whisked her awFay from the rest,

She Bbwondered how we all contCminue to spin

aEbround and around 'til we lFift off the ground,

for Gwhat would she be without us?C

And Cnow that we are Cmolder, she still Ghaunts me.

Through Cdark and warm she aCmlways wears a Gsmile.

So for yEmou, my Dfriend, a Gsong to Asay,

"I'm Cstill EminspFired Dby Gyou."

"I'm Cstill EminspFired Dby Gyou." (x3)
