[Verse 1]
C
Sit close, let me tell you every truth I know
F C
I could read you poetry and prose
Fmaj7
We could contemplate the syllables
E7
If you so wish for it
C Fmaj7
If so, let your consciousness dissolve like snow
Em C
Watch the branches replicate your bones
Fmaj7
Place the precious palms among your own
F Em Dm7
Be the water and the boat, and so I stow
[Pre-Chorus]
Em7
Every thought that lies inside of me
Dm F
Atop the shelves amidst my library
Dm
So, when you're older you may visit me
Em F G
When I’m at peace
[Chorus]
C
Patiently I'll reach up above
Fmaj7
I can see the ocean as I stare at the stars
C
I will place my knowledge in your hands
Fmaj7
It's okay if you don’t understand just yet
[Verse 2]
C
Speak slow let me ask before I take a note
May I read a couple words you wrote?
F C
Every page you touch the letters glow
F C
From the ashes do we grow? and I boast
Fmaj7
I can comprehend the words you spoke
F Dm7
You're the writer and the quote and now I hope
[Pre-Chorus]
Em7
Every thought that lies inside of me
Fmaj7
Someday finds its way from soul to speech
F Dm7
So, I may bestow a legacy
Em F C
Like you to me
[Chorus]
C
Patiently I'll reach up above
Fmaj7
I can read the ocean as I write with the stars
C
I will place your knowledge in my hands
F C
Flick a page until I understand, I do, oh
[Bridge]
F C
Like trying to speak while remaining in silence
Dm7
Like facing your fears without feeling frightened
C
I'll never know if I'm yet to try it, oh no-o-o
[Chorus]
N.C.
Patiently I'll reach up above
N.C.
I can see the ocean as I stare at the stars
N.C.
I will place my knowledge in your hands
N.C.
Flick a page until I understand, I do, oh
[Chorus]
C
Patiently I'll reach up above
Fmaj7
I can read the ocean as I write with the stars
C
I will place your knowledge in my hands
F C
Flick a page until I understand, I do, oh
