Pebbles

E E A A C#m B

     E
Well it would be a lovely start
    A
to plant some pebbles in the garden
C#m
Hope to grow a planet large
     B
that floats around in our backyard
    E
And yes, your family still could visit
   A
We haven't left the solar system
   C#m
If they request consent to land
     B
we'll accept if we are wearing pants
    E
But most days let's just float on top
    A
and orbit all our favorite spots
   C#m
If we get dizzy, let's fall off
  B
A couple cozy astronauts
E E A A C#m B

     E
Well it would be a lovely start
   A
to plant some pebbles in the garden
   C#m
If it won't rain it doesn't matter
       B
we'll water them with tears of laughter
   E
At first there might not be much to it
    A
no forest, roads or rivers through it
  C#m
A rocky globe to start us off
    B
and on it grow the world we want
     E
The neighbors will all think we're strange
       A
as we wave at them from outer space
     C#m
But I had to know just how it felt
    B
to grow something bigger than…

 E
What I have built alone
A home I thought I'd never leave
     A
but you and I can shape a world
the lakes and towns and everything
C#m
We'll put a planet in the sky
B                           E
grown from pebbles, you and I

E E A A
      C#m
And if little aliens do invade
  B
attempts at peace will still be made
      A
I'll contact them with gifts but if
       E
they reject those I will insist
   C#m
on meeting their attacks with might
  B
A big galactic pillow fight
    A
and just before they win we're told
          E
they're allergic to the whimsical
        C#m
So I'll blast this song and don't you know
      B
the sweetness makes their heads explode
     A
and look they're filled with popcorn so
C#m                      B                     E
let's grab a snack, sit back, and watch the show…

E
I'm not a chemist, no, I am no geologist
     A
but you and I can shape a world
The lakes and towns and all of it
    C#m
and bit by bit and stone by stone
                                           A
the pebbles take the shape of somethin' else
 B                           E
That’s growing bigger than myself
