^{Key: :[Fm] (w: Sam Sparro)}

INTRO: [Fm] [C#] [A#m] [Cm] [D#] : [x4]

VERSE 1:
If the [Fm] fish swam out of the ocean
And grew legs and they started walking
And the [C#] apes climbed down from the trees
And grew [A#m] tall and they started [Cm] talking [D#]

VERSE 2:
And the [Fm] stars fell out of the sky
And the tears rolled into the ocean
And now I'm [C#] looking for a reason why
You even [A#m] set my world into [Cm] motion [D#]

CHORUS 1:
Cause if [Fm] you're not really here
Then the stars don't even matter
Now I'm [C#] filled to the top with fear
But it's [A#m] all just a bunch of [Cm] matter [D#]

CHORUS 2:
Cause if [Fm] you're not really here
Then I don't want to be either
I wanna be [C#] next to you
Black and [A#m] gold, black and [Cm] gold
[D#] black and [Fm] gold

BREAK: [Fm] [C#] [A#m] [Cm] [D#]

VERSE 3:
[Fm] I look up into the night sky
And see a thousand eyes staring back
[C#] And all around these golden beacons
[A#m] I see nothing but [Cm] black [D#]

VERSE 4:
[Fm] I feel a way of something beyond them
I don't see what I can feel
[C#] If vision is the only validation
Then [A#m] most of my life isn't [Cm] real [D#]
