[Verse 1]
D
Six acres of concrete wasteland,
F#m
One sunflower standing tall.
Em                                           G            A
I didn't know your name, I didn't know your fame, I just liked you, that's all

[Verse 2]
D                                    F#m
I can not buy you diamond rings, for Christ sake! I can barely sing
Em                           G                      A            D
...I feel like a teenager in danger of doing that "falling for" thing
D                          F#m                            Em
I didn't mean for this to happen but the greatest things happen 
Em                     G
By accident, like the apple... on Issac's head. 

[Chorus]
Bm               D
We sat for hours, you measured your thumb against mine
G
Electricity, shooting down my spine.
A                 Bm                 D
We sat for hours, we waited 'til the sun went down
G                       A
Alighted the night bus, nowhere near this town...

D
Six acres of concrete wasteland,

One sunflower standing tall,
Em                                           G                    A      
I didn't know your name, I didn't know your fame, I just proper liked you, that's all
D                      F#m
We talked historys and pasts, 
           Em
I let you read the second draft,
G
Converging through the afternoon.

[Chorus]
Bm               D
We sat for hours, you measured your thumb against mine
G
Electricity, shooting down my spine.
A                 Bm                D
We sat for hours, you weathered my monologue, 
G                 A
A burning beacon, brilliant through the fog.

[Verse 4]
D                                   F#m
Standing out from the crowd. That's just the way you are, 
        Em                                    G           A 
To look that good should not be allowed, our local movie star. 
D                           F#m
The girls look on in envy, you guys look on in envy
Em                          G
Be la de da de da da da de dum

[Chorus]
Bm               D
We sat for hours, you measured your thumb against mine
G
Electricity, shooting down my spine.
A                 Bm                 D
We sat for hours, we waited 'til the sun went down
G                       A
Alighted the night bus, nowhere near this town...
