C/GSound is a wave like a wave on the ocean
C/GMoon plays the ocean like a vioGlin C
C/FPushing and pulling from shore to shore,
C/FBiggest melody you never heard Cbefore.
What if I were the Gnight sky?
What if I were the C/Fnight sky?
It's my lullCaby; My lullaby to Gleave by
Lullaby to C/Fleave by.
If I were the Cnight
C/GWhat if we hadn't been born at the same time
C/GWhat if you were 75 and GI were C9?
C/FWould I come visit you?
Bring you cookies in an old folks' Chome
Would you be there Galone?
When the Amlate summer lightning fires off in your arms
Will I remember to breathe? No, I Cnever will.
If AmI could convince you that I mean you no harm
Just wanna show you how Cnot to need
If i were the the Gnight sky.C/F.. and if i were the night sky
Heres my lullCaby
My lullaby to Gleave by C/F
If i were the Cnight
C/G x4 G C (let ring)
C (let ring)
What if we hadn't been each other at the same time
Would you tell me all the stories from when you're young and in your C/Fprime
Would I rock you to sleep
Would you tell me all the secrets you don't need to Ckeep
Would I still Gmiss you
Oh, would you C/Fthen have been Cmine?
C/GSound is a wave like a wave on the ocean
G (let ring)
Moon plays the ocean like a violin
