D
I would rather stay here

Bm
where the flowers bloom and the sun,, it shines
it shines on you

G A D
It lights up your eyes

Bm A G
Bm A G

Bm A G
Sitting here all by ourselves,, counting all the people

Bm A G
As they pass us by

Bm A
They gather all around,, stare on down

G D Em
Into a dark,, dark,, pit

Bm A G
Don’t go,, please don’t go

Bm A
But they step on in,, they fall all in

G
They walk all over you

Bm A G D Em
One step at a time they walk in a line down a false,, false,, hope

[Chorus]~
D
I would rather stay here

Bm
where the flowers bloom and the sun,, it shines
it shines on you

G A D
it lights up your eyes

D
I would rather stay here
where the moon,, it glows

Bm
soaring doves and falling crows

G A D
laughter is the only sound here

D Em G D
If i had one wish,, I’d fill up that pit,, I’d fill up that pit

Em
I’d cry till it filled to the brim

G D
You’d swim to the top,, and I’d grab your hand

Bm A
Oh how can I,, how can I convince you to stay

G
where all the flowers bloom and the grass it sways

Bm A
And the rain,, it pours,, and the waves all roar

G
and the trees they grow,, and the falling crow

Bm A
soars down into that dark cold pit

C G
and you follow it in,, oh you follow it in

D
I would rather stay here

Bm
where the flowers bloom and the sun,, it shines
it shines on you

G A D
it lights up your eyes

D
I would rather stay here
where the moon it glows

Bm
soaring doves and falling crows

G A D
laughter is the only sound here

D Em G D
If I had one wish,, I’d fill up that pit,, I’d fill up that pit

Em
Oh,, I’d cry till it filled to the brim

G D
You’d swim to the top and I’d grab your hand
