[G] Green was the color of the [D/F#] grass where I used to [Em7] read at Centennial [Em9/B] Park
I [G] used to think I would [D/F#] meet somebody [Em7] there [Em9/B]
[G] Teal was the color of your [D/F#] shirt when you were 1[Em7] 6 at the yogurt [Em9/B] shop
You [G] used to work at to [D/F#] make a little mo[Em7] ney [Em9/B]
[D] Time curious time gave me no [Em7] compasses
Gave me no signs were there [D] clues I didn't see? [Em7]
[D] And isn't it just so pretty to [Em7] think
All along there [D] was some invisi[Em7] ble string
Tying you to [G] me? [D/F#] [Em7] [Em9/B]
[G] Bad was the blood of the [D/F#] song in the cab on your [Em7] first trip to L[Em9/B] A
You [G] ate at my favorite [D/F#] spot for din[Em7] ner [Em9/B]
[G] Bold was the waitress on our [D/F#] three-year trip getting [Em7] lunch down by the [Em9/B] Lakes
She [G] said I looked like an A[D/F#] merican sin[Em7] ger [Em9/B]
[D] Time curious time gave me no [Em7] compasses
Gave me no signs were there [D] clues I didn't see? [Em7]
[D] And isn't it just so pretty to [Em7] think
All along there [D] was some invisi[Em7] ble string
Tying you to [G] me? [D/F#] [Em7] ...A [Em9/B] string that pulled me
[Am] ..Out of all the [G/B] wrong arms right in[D] to that dive bar
[Am] ...Something wrapped [G/B] all of my past mis[D] takes in barbed wire
[Am] Chains around my [G/B] demons [D] wool to brave the [Am] seasons
One [G/B] single thread of [D] gold tied me to [G] you [D/F#] [Em7] [Em9/B]
[G] Cold was the steel of my [D/F#] axe to grind for the [Em7] boys who broke my [Em9/B] heart
[G] Now I send their [D/F#] babies pre[Em7] sents [Em9/B]
[G] Gold was the color of the [D/F#] leaves when I showed you a[Em7] round Centennial [Em9/B] Park
[G] Hell was the journey [D/F#] but it brought me hea[Em7] ven [Em9/B]
[D] Time wondrous time gave me the [Em7] blues and then purple pink skies
And it's [D] cool, Baby with me [Em7]
[D] And isn't it just so pretty to [Em] think
[D] And isn't it just so pretty to [Em7] think
All along there [D] was some invisi[Em7] ble string
Tying you to [G] me? [D/F#] [Em7] [Em9/B] [G]
