Chord/Tab song: Rocket Ships

[Em]On summer nights the stars fall a little slower and
[C]I don't if I can [G]catch them in time to sew [Em]words
delicately to the palm of my hand, tell me [C]What am I [G]worth ?
[Em]Do you see words written in the air
or is it [C]just me forming pictures from [G]nowhere
I have [Em]funny little comic books taped to my hands
And a [C]brain within a brain, it's got a [G]mind of it's own, yeah
 
[G]Rocket ships will take off [Em]whether you're in them or not
[C]And it's sad but it's the truth, [D]the world would still turn without you
[G]But when your bones turn to earth [Em]and you ask me 'what was I worth?'
[C]I'll simply plant a flower above you, [D]and you can watch it [G]grow [Em]
You can watch it [C]grow, you can watch it grow, you can watch it [D]grow
 
[Em]On summer nights my thoughts form a little vaguer and
[C]I don't know how to ar[G]range them or put them into [Em]words
Now I'm leaving bashful teardrops in my hands [C]Please tell me I am a [G]man
[Em]Do you think aliens in outer space [C]think that they're the only [G]human race
My [Em]mind's a house of magic cards about to blow away, yeah
[C]I'm just a shoot and I'm not [G]ready to grow yet
 
[G]Rocket ships will take off [Em]whether you're in them or not
[C]And it's sad but it's the truth, [D]the world would still turn without you
[G]But when your bones turn to earth [Em]and you ask me 'what was I worth?'
[C]I'll simply plant a flower above you, [D]and you can watch it [G]grow [Em]
You can watch it [C]grow, you can watch it grow, you can watch it [D]grow
 
[Em]Would it be okay for me to stay [C]If okay is [G]here then I'm far away
[Em]And the train's not leaving for a while
[C]I packed by bags but they've [G]emptied themselves some[Em]how
The thought of meaning something just makes my brain [C]twist, invert and [G]fall down sideways
[Em]But my voice is a spark so let me sing [C]'til the fire's so [G]bright it's deafening
 
[G]Rocket ships will take off [Em]whether you're in them or not
[C]And it's sad but it's the truth, [D]the world would still turn without you
[G]But when your bones turn to earth [Em]and you ask me 'what was I worth?'
[C]I'll simply plant a flower above you, [D]and you can watch it [G]grow [Em]
You can watch it [C]grow, you can watch it grow, you can watch it [D]grow
