Mama said the stars are the universe's eyes
      G                                             D      A
I can feel them watching over me most of the time mmhmm, mmhmm
Bm
We grew up believing we could learn how to fly
   G                                                D      A
We came from the Earth, but we belong to the sky, mmhmm, mmhmm

[Verse 2]
Bm
I saw your soul without the skin attached
G                                       D     A
You've got the guts of a coyote pack, mmhmm, mhm
           Bm
We've been kissed, we've been cut

But we do what needs the doing
G                                           D     A
We're just rainbows dreaming we're human, mmhmm, mhm


[Pre-Chorus 1]
G
Please excuse the lights shooting out of my head
  Em                                                   D
I keep 'em in a cage but they come out when they see a friend
            A
You must be a friend
       G
You're never really going to have control of it all
       Em
So you best get cool with where your chips are gonna fall
           D
We are the sun, and mother's milk
      A
And cusswords, and poetry


[Chorus]
        G
There's no use in running unless you run like heck
    Em
The best things we've learned, we learned from the wreck
D
Jesus coming back as a woman this time
A
Handing out hugs in the clinic line
    G
And someone tell the devil we don't need no Hell
      Em
We're all pretty good at beating up ourselves

[Verse 3]
   Bm
As kids we believed that the angels talked
G                                               D      A
Everything is magic until you think it's not, mmhmm, mmhmm
     Bm
It's easy to be thankful for the things you've got
         G                                                 D      A
It takes guts to give thanks for the things you've lost, mmhmm, mmhmm


[Pre-Chorus 2]
    G
And we grew up believing good wins over bad
       Em                                           D
So you gave away your heart but the wolves attacked
                               A
But then a bigger heart grew back
G
Please excuse the words coming out of my mouth
Em                                                         D
I'm a happy man but there's some things that I need to get out
              A
I need to get out


[Chorus]
        G
There's no use in running unless you run like heck
    Em
The best things we've learned, we learned from the wreck
D
Jesus coming back as a woman this time
A
Handing out hugs in the clinic line
    G
And someone tell the devil we don't need no Hell
      Em
We're all pretty good at beating up ourselves
