My favorite song off the new record...
C Am G F
C Am Em F
C Dm C
Oh Atlas could not understand
Am F
The world was so much smaller than
C Dm C
The one he used to hold before
Am F
But the weight it brought him to the floor
C Dm C
As you watched him struggle to his feet
Am F
You took photos capturing his defeat
C Dm C
And messaged them to all your friends
Am F
And we all laughed at his expense
C Am G F
C Am Em F
C Dm C
Oh come my love and swim with me
Am F
Out in this vast Binary Sea
C Dm C
Zeros and ones patterns appear
Am F
They'll prove to all that we were here
C Dm C
For if there is no document
Am F
We cannot build our monument
C Dm C
So look into the lens and
Am F
I'll make sure this moment never dies
C Am G F
C Am Em F
C Am G F
C Am Em F
C Dm C
Oh Atlas could not stay engaged
Am F
Was more distracted every day
C Dm C
You slowly fell into disarray
Am F
Just trying to think of something to say
C Dm C
For if there is no document
Am F
There cannot be a monument
C Dm C
So lean in close or lend an ear
Am F F (hold)
There's something brilliant bound to happen here
