At Centennial Park

Time, curious time  
            Em  
Gave me no compasses  

Gave me no signs

I didn't see?  
D         
 And isn't it just  
        Em  
So pretty to think

Spot for dinner

Getting lunch down by the Lakes

 D  
Time, mystical time  
           Em  
Cutting me open  

Then healing me fine

Were there clues I didn't see?

 And isn't it just

So pretty to think

Bm  
  A string that pulled me  
Am                 G       
  Out of all the wrong arms  
      D  
Right into that dive bar  
Am                     G  
 Something wrapped all of  
            D  
My past mistakes in barbed wire  
Am                G  
 Chains around my demons  
D                 Am  
Wool to brave the seasons  
    G                D  
One single thread of gold  
           G    D/F#  Em  Bm  
Tied me to you  


[Pré-Refrão]
 
 G           
Cold was the steel  
      D/F#  
Of my axe to grind  
         Em    
For the boys who  
          Bm  
Broke my heart  
 G               
Now I send their  
 D/F#          Em  Bm  
Babies presents  
 G           
Gold was the color  
        D/F#  
Of the leaves  

When I showed you  
  Em               Bm  
Around Centennial Park  
 G                
Hell was the journey but

It brought me heaven

Time, wondrous time  
              Em  
Gave me the blues and  

Then purple-pink skies  
          D  
And it's cool  
            Em  
Baby, with me  
D       
 And isn't it just  
        Em  
So pretty to think  
                 D  
All along there was some  
        Em
