Em7 G
There's a river that parts the valley of this town
Em7 G
Following the road up to your father's farm
Em7 G
Your rosy lungs were empty on the day that you were born
Em7 G
And no one thought you'd make it past the morning

Em7
Your brother said your mother
G
Was a firefly you buried in the earth
Em7
And every night, the fire light
G
Warms the tender bits of skin beneath your shirt
Em7 G
The climbing constellations move in semi-tones
Em7 G
And set behind the county line in a melody of gravitation
