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
