Rocket Ships - Cavetown chords

Key: G Singer/Band: Cavetown


Tone: [G] Capo: 2
[Verse]
[G]On summer nights the stars fall a little slower and
[Em]I don't know if I can catch them in time
[Cadd9]To sew words delicately to the palm of my hand, tell me
[Dsus4]What am I worth?
[G]Do you see words written in the air?
[Em]Or is it just me forming pictures from nowhere?
[Cadd9]I have funny little comic books taped to my hands and
[Dsus4]A brain within a brain it's got a mind of it's own, yeah.
[Interlude]
[G] [Em] [Cadd9] [Dsus4]
[Chorus]
[G]Rocket ships will take off
[Em]Whether you're in them or not
[Cadd9]And it's sad, but it's the truth
[Dsus4]The world would still turn without you
[G]And when your bones turn to earth
[Em]And you ask me, "What was I worth?"
[Cadd9]I'll simply plant a flower above you
[Dsus4]And you can watch it [G]grow [Em]
[Cadd9]And you can watch it grow, you
can watch it grow, you can watch [Dsus4]it grow.
[Verse]
[G]On summer nights my thoughts form a little vauger and
[Em]I don't know how to arrange them or put them into words
[Cadd9]Now I'm leaving bashful teardrops in my hands
[Dsus4]So tell me I ain't a man
[G]Do you think aliens in outer space
[Em]Think that they're the only human race?
[Cadd9]My mind's a house of magic cards about to blow away, yeah
[Dsus4]I'm just-a-shootin' I'm not ready to grow yet
[Interlude]
[G] [Em] [Cadd9] [Dsus4]
[Chorus]
[G]Rocket ships will take off
[Em]Whether you're in them or not
[Cadd9]And it's sad, but it's the truth
[Dsus4]The world would still turn without you
[G]And when your bones turn to earth
[Em]And you ask me, "What was I worth?"
[Cadd9]I'll simply plant a flower above you
[Dsus4]And you can watch it grow [G] [Em]
[Cadd9]And you can watch it grow, you can
watch it grow, you can watch [Dsus4]it grow
[Bridge]
[G]Would it be okay for me to stay?
[Em]If okay is here, then I'm far away...
[Cadd9]And the train's not leaving for a while
[Dsus4]I packed my bags but they emptied themselves somehow
[G]The thought of meaning something just makes my brain
[Em]Twist and turn and fall down sideways
[Cadd9]But my voice is a spark, so let me sing
[Dsus4]'Till the fire's so bright, it's deafening
[Chorus]
[G]Rocket ships will take off
[Em]Whether you're in them or not
[Cadd9]And it's sad, but it's the truth
[Dsus4]The world would still turn without you
[G]And when your bones turn to earth
[Em]And you ask me, "What was I worth?"
[Cadd9]I'll simply plant a flower above you
[Dsus4]And you can watch it grow [G] [Em]
[Cadd9]And you can watch it grow, you can
watch it grow, you can watch [Dsus4]it grow.
