[Intro 1]
[Em][G][C][G][F#][G][Em][G][C][B]
[G][F#]
I [G]watched the smoke

[Verse 1]
As it grew dark[D]er
And [Em]blew up through the [C]roof
I watched [G]the fad
[D]Who sobbed [G]in panic
[Em]As the fire gr[C]ew

[Verse 2]
I saw Vir[G]ginia
Get rid of [D]Langley,
[G]and[Em] its secrets too[C]
I held your [G]hand
And sat there [D]knowing[G]
[Em]That we'd make it through
[C][G][Em][G][C]

[Verse 3]
[B][G]
[F#]I sa[G]w this man
Dispose of hunger
[Em]And soap operas [C]too
I saw this [G]field
That grew perfection
[Em]Full of things you [C]do

[Verse 4]
I saw this [G]box
Get [D]rid of [G]heartache
[Em]And cure cancer [C]too
When I [G]awoke

[Verse 5]
If we [G]can
We will [Em]leave our letter an[G]d this song,
[D]for you[G]
And we'll write, once [Em]a day
And float it through [D]the sea, [G]to you
[D]We'll re[G]gret, all those [Em]things we thought of but [G]didn't ever

[Verse 6]
If we [G]can, we will [Em]leave our letter and this [D]song,
[G]for you[D][G]
And we'll write, once [Em]a day
And float it through [D]the sea, [G]to [D]you
[G]We'll regret, all those [Em]things we
thought of but [D]didn't [G]ever do[D]
[G]When the sky, seems to cle[Em]ar
Who will then be [D]left, but [G]a f[D]ew,
[G]me and you[Em][G]
