[VERSE 1]
You're [G]transcendent, you taught me so [C]many things
You taught me that [G]help is all we to this dumb [C]planet bring
But one time sticks [G]out for me, you were five, we were working with Bob[C] in Maui
Driving a ren[G]tal Sebring, the top down, every [C]morning we'd drive on down to
[VERSE 2]
[Em]Baby Beach and the Pacific Ocean's [C]not the sea, we'll surf the waves
And we'll [Em]walk the sand to bring your leg back that [C]you'd broken
And you needed to learn how to [G]walk again and I could help you [C]with all this
To help you is all [G]there is, you showed me that that's [C]all there is
That helping is tran[G]scendence [C]
[VERSE 3]
And [G]after we'd go and eat at [C]Anthony's
Or we'd drive around and [G]maybe stop and eat Fukushima [C]Hot Dogs
Sittin' on the hood or we'd [G]drive to the top of the volcano called Hale[C]akala
At night we'd stare up [G]at the moon and we did all this [C]listening to
Ga Ga Ga Ga [G]Ga by Spoon
[VERSE 4]
Months [G]later we were back in Toronto, a [C]Tuesday night, an all ages show
You [G]were so young, we sat in the back row, [C]Deerhunter opened the show
The [G]headliner was introduced, we [C]did our best, we'd have to go soon
We got [G]a T-shirt and we caught five tunes
Just [C]enough to say the first show for us two was [G]Spoon
You're [G]transcendent, you taught me so [C]many things
You taught me that [G]help is all we to this dumb [C]planet bring
But one time sticks [G]out for me, you were five, we were working with Bob[C] in Maui
