C G
they both met in the midnight sky ,
D Em
got lost in each other’s eyes ,
C G Am7
then threw away the map and lost the key ,
C G
god sent them the first two kids ,
D Em
one named fire , the other one wind ,
C G Am7
with a note that floated down for them to read .
C G D
it said ’you asked what it was like up here for me . ’
C G
mother earth and father ti – ime ,
D Em C G
fell in love over appalachian wi – ine ,
D Em C G
hit a rough spell and almost lost their mi – inds ,
D Em C G
raised a little hell before they fell in li – ine .
C G
fire came out with a restless soul ,
D Em
that only got worse as he got older ,
C G Am7
’til finally he got too hot to tame .
C G
time said ’son i know it’s hard but ,
D Em
you’re breaking your momma’s heart . ’
C G Am7
and fire looked up through tears that made the rain ,
C G D
he said ’why is it everything i love i set aflame?’
C G
mother earth and father ti – ime ,
D Em C G
fell in love over appalachian wi – ine ,
D Em C G
hit a rough spell and almost lost their mi – inds ,
D Em C G
raised a little hell before they fell in li – ine .
C G
wind was born to the open sky with A ,
D Em
bad temper and a wandering eye ,
C G Am7
that kept him on the run for most his days .
C G
earth said ’listen , hear my child , see ,
D Em
i used to run that wild ,
C G Am7
’cause it’s hard to put a finger on the pain ,
C G D
but son you can’t outrun a thing like shame . ’
C G
then time and earth got on their knees ,
D Em
and prayed ’dear god , oh can’t you see?
C G
the fire’s too hot , the wind’s too cold ,
D Em
and loving them is gonna kill us both . ’
C G
then god reached down and took their hands ,
D Em
dried their tears , and smiled and said ,
C G Am7
’that’s kind of what it’s like up here for me .
C G D
yeah , loving them will cost you every – thing . ’
C G
mother earth and father ti – ime ,
D Em C G
