Jack Johnson - Constellations Chords

Capo 1


G
  The light was leaving and the west it was blue
C                       G
The children's laughter sang
And skipping just like the stones that they threw
      C
Their voices echoed across the way
             D7
It's getting late


G      F            C
It was just another night
         D7
With the sunset
        G        F            C
And the moon-rise not so far behind
            D7
To give us just enough light
    G        F             C
To lay down underneath the stars
         D7
Listen to papa's translations
G       F                 C
Of the stories across the sky
            D7
We drew our own constellations

G
The west winds often last too long
    C                                           G
The wind may calm down nothing ever feels the same
Sheltered under the Kamani tree
C                        G
Waiting for the pas-sing rain
Clouds keep moving to uncover the scene
C                                G
Stars above us chasing the day away
To find the stories that we sometimes need
C                                              D7
Listen close enough till all else fades, fades away


G      F            C
It was just another night
       D7
With a sunset
      G        F            C
And a moon-rise not so far behind
            D7
To give us just e-nough light
    G        F             C
To lay down underneath the stars
          D7
Listen to all the translations
G       F                C
Of the stories across the sky
            D7
