(When your [Em]best friend's [F]all strung o[G]ut) [Am]

[Am]Feelings sleeping in the field again
I can [G]feel, I can feel, I can feel
It's beginning to e[Am]nd [Dm] [Em]
[Am]Premonitions smiling in the dark
I can [G]see, I can see, I can see
The story's starting to a[Dm]rc [C/E] [F]
[G] It dries up

[PRE-CHORUS]
[Am] I've been a spoken word
[Am] I've been a river bed

And [F]color's so [G]oh

[VERSE 2]
[Am]Waves in theta sleeping into dreams
I can [G]feel, I can feel, I can feel
The celestial be[Am]ings [Dm] [Em]

I can [G]see, I can see, I can see
The beauty in the m[Dm]ess [C/E] [F]
[G] It dries up

And [F]color's so [G]oh
