Bm D F#m
In the time before we needed forgiveness
Bm D F#m A
You said, "Meet me after school at the top of Elysian"
Bm D F#m
Sharing headphones and a plastic bottle of vodka
Bm D F#m
In the distance, the crowd going wild in the stadium
[Chorus]
A Bm F#m
Orchestra playing under the bandshell
A Bm F#m
Swaying together like cathedral bells
D C#m Bm
They ring and ring and ring and ring and ring
A Bm D
And I could only hear you singing
[Verse 2]
Bm D F#m
She said, "When do you think we'll stop feeling like children?
Bm D F#m A
'Cause the last time I asked my mom she said she still did"
Bm D F#m
As we passed the cell towers disguised like palm trees
Bm D F#m
She laid out across my lap and we kept driving
[Chorus]
A Bm F#m
Orchestra playing under the bandshell
A Bm F#m
Swaying together like cathedral bells
D C#m Bm
They ring and ring and ring and ring and ring
A Bm D
And I could only hear you singing
[Bridge]
E D
Marian Harlow, sitting quiet
E D
Imagine if we had stayed
E D
Tourniquet stems the blushing tide
E D
Love isn't worship, love is change
A Bm F#m
A Bm F#m
[Chorus]
A Bm F#m
Orchestra playing under the bandshell
A Bm F#m
Swaying together like cathedral bells
D C#m Bm
They ring and ring and ring and ring and ring
A Bm D
And I could only hear you singing
A Bm F#m
Orchestra playing under the bandshell
A Bm F#m
Swaying together like cathedral bells
D C#m Bm
They ring and ring and ring and ring and ring
A Bm D
And I could only hear you singing
