D7
[Verse 1]
D7 D7
There's a little town by the river bed and with a book that's writ about it
D7 D7
It has every word they've ever said that's listed so you can count them
D7 D7
And every little thought that was in their head the people by the mountain
D7 D7 D7
Divided by each syllable and tossed into a fountain
D7 D7
And they wished for this, they wished for that
D7
And so the stars were in their hand

[Verse 2]
D7 D7
Olive is a girl who never even mentioned butterflies
D7 D7
She'd rather soak up invisible things and pour them from her eyes
D7 D7
And I know what comes from the amplifiers, the pedals and the horns
D7 D7
It's the closest thing to the holy noise that I met the minute I was born
D7 D7
It's the closest thing to the holy noise that I met the minute I was born
D7 D7
It's the closest thing to the holy noise that I met the minute I was born
D7 D7
It's the closest thing to the holy noise that I met the minute I was born
D7 D7
It's the closest thing to the holy noise that I met the minute I was born

[Outro]
D7
Wished for this, wished for that
D7
The silver stars were in your hat
D7
Wished for this, wished for that
D7
The silver stars were in your hat
D7
Wished for this, wished for that
N.C.
The silver stars were in your hat
