Katie Costello - Old Owl Ukulele

Intro: D Bm7

D                                  Bm7
You are one hundred thousand years old
                              D
You know everything ever been told
                                        Bm7
You can map the globe in a millisecond, can't you?
D                     Bm7
You are five thousand leagues under the sea
                      D
You see everything in sight
                                         Bm7
You don't need binoculars; you have your eyes

G          A          Bm       D
If you had hope would you feel stronger?
G           A         Bm        D
If you knew how would you sleep longer?
G          A        Bm       F#m
If you did not fear what you fear most,
      G        A           Bm
Would you feel anything at all?
      G       A        Bm  F#m
Would you see anything all?
      G        A           D
Would you feel anything at all?

D                                 Bm7
You are an old owl sitting in the treetops
                                         D
Looking at the housetops, you are in the know
                                         Bm7
Watching newcomers come and go, come and go
D                            Bm7
You are all alone, cooped up inside
                                      D
Cold by the fireplace's haunting gold size
                                                     Bm7
You are dwarfed by your own self-loathing, ambitious tendencies

G          A          Bm       D
If you had hope would you feel stronger?
G           A         Bm        D
If you knew how would you sleep longer?
G          A        Bm       F#m
If you did not fear what you fear most,
      G        A           Bm
Would you feel anything at all?
      G       A        Bm  F#m
Would you see anything all?
      G        A           
Would you feel anything at all?

Bm         A
We all hide from our minds
G            Bbdim7
When the lamplight goes out and dims
Bm        A           G          Bbdim7
We all try to de-rust the hinges squeaking deep inside
(play nothing)
Rest now while you're still alive
You will rest more in the afterlife
                                         D
I can't catch you, and you don't want me to
                  
D                        Bm7
You read those books all alone
                               D
Looking for the home you never owned
                        Bm7
You can be whatever you need to be
                                         D
Don't let that bomb explode, like in the Twilight Zone
                         Bm7             D
Your glasses are still intact, you know
