[Verso 1]
F C F F Bb
F
Just outside the city
Gm Am
I was holding somethings no one's ever seen before
Bb Gm
Its eyes were kind of pretty its irises were
Blacked out and its scales were made of gold
Gm Bb F
Even through the flash flood
Am
I spared it every harvest cause
I wanted it to grow
Gm Bb
Scientists keep knocking
Gm Am
Something deep within me that refused to let it go
Gm Dm C G
I know you are
Bb Dm
Onto something onto something
C G
I know who you are
Bb F
Onto something onto something
[Verso 2]
F Gm
Gave it to the city
Am
And hoped that maybe one day it'd pass
Children all this love/luck?
Gm F Gm
Something of a mascot
To one day they had found
Am F
A silver belly facing up
Gm Bb
For a week they kept it quiet
Gm Am
And without a proper burial
They kept it in a jar
Gm Bb Gm
It was dressed until it passed the pump
It was overfilled with sand
Am F
And then it spoiled a lucky charm
[Refrão]
Gm Dm C G
I know you are
Bb Dm
Onto something onto something
C G
I know you are
Bb F G Bb
Onto something onto something And something new
