Constellations Chords & Lyrics by Jack Johnson
Constellations
guitar chords lyrics
Capo 1st fret
When playing a G in the verses, you can hammer on the 5th fret of the high E
string some to make it sound better
G
The light was leaving and the west it was blue
C
The children's laughter sang
G
And skipping just like the stones they threw
C
Their voices echoed across the way
Dsus2
It's getting late
G F C
It was just another night
D
With a sunset
G F C
And a moonrise not so far behind
D
To give us just enough light
G F C
To lay down underneath the stars
D
Listen to papa's translations
G F C
Of the stories across the sky
D
We drew our own constellations
G
The west winds often last too long
C
The wind may calm down nothing ever feels the same
G
Sheltered under the Kamani tree
C
Waiting for the passing rain
G
Clouds keep moving to uncover the scene
C
Stars above us chasing the day away
G
To find the stories that we sometimes need
C
Listen close enough
Dsus2
All else fades, fades away
G F C
It was just another night
D
With a sunset
G F C
And a moonrise not so far behind
D
To give us just enough light
G F C
To lay down underneath the stars
D
Listen to papa's translations
G F C
Of the stories across the sky
D
We drew our own constellations
