Verse 1:
F              Cm       Bb
Please picture me in the trees
          F
I hit my peak at seven
F            Cm           Bb
Feet in the swing over the creek
           F
I was too scared to jump in
    F        Cm         Bb
But I, I was high in the sky
            F            F   Cm
With Pennsylvania under me
           Bb                  F
Are there still beautiful things?
 
Chorus:
Cm
 Sweet tea in the summer
 Bb
Cross your heart won't tell no other
 Eb                              F
And though I can’t recall your face
 
I still got love for you
F
 Your braids like a pattern
Cm
Love you to the moon and to Saturn
Bb
Passed down like folk songs

The love lasts so long, oh

Gm                        Bb
  And I've been meaning to tell you

I think your house is haunted
                   Bb                    Gm
Your dad is always mad and that must be why
                            Bb
And I think you should come live with me
                F
And we could be pirates
                       Bb
Then you won't have to cry
               Gm
Or hide in the closet
                Bb
And just like a folk song
                 F       Bb
Our love will be passed on

Please picture me in the weeds

Before I learned civility

I used to scream ferociously any time I wanted
F  Cm Bb  F
 I,    I

And though I can't recall your face
 
I still got love for you

Pack your dolls and a sweater

We'll move to India forever

Passed down like folk songs

Our love lasts so long
