In the qui et time of (D)eve ning,
when the stars as sume their (G)pat (C)terns
and the day has made his (D)jour
and we won der just what (C)hap pened
to the (Cmaj7)life we knew, be fore the (Am7)world (Bm7)changed, when not a (Em)thing I held
was (C#m7)true.
But you were kind to me,
and you re mind ed me
that the world is not my (D)play ground;
there are oth er things that (G)mat (C)ter;
what is sim ple needs pro (D)tect

I al ways seemed so cer tain, but I was (C)real ly nev er sure.
But you (Cmaj7)stayed,
and you (Bm7)called my name

and look who made it through
but your fun ny friend and (Eb)you.
You see the pat terns in the (Bb)big (Ab)sky.

Don’t know the an swer or the (Dm)rea son why.
We’ll stick to geth er ’til the (G9)day we die.
If I have to do this (Am7)all a (Am7)sec ond time,

Who would the an gels send,
but that un like ly blend
of these two fun ny friends?
That’s us.
