Tapioca Tundra
A                    A+ [1,5: A+/C#]
Reasoned verse, some prose or rhymes
F#m                Adim
Lose themselves in other times

     Bm                 E

And waiting hopes cast silent spells

      Bm               E

That speak in crowded clues

   Bm           F

It cannot be a part of me

    Dm                A

For now it's part of you

Careful plays on fields that seem to
Vanish when they're in between
And softly as I walk away
In freshly tattered shoes
It cannot be a part of me
For now it's part of you

C#

Sunshine, ragtime

F#m

Blowing in the breeze

B

Midnight, looks right

E7               E+

Standing more at ease

Silhouettes and figures stay
Close to what we had to say
And one more time a faded dream
Is saddened by the news
It cannot be a part of me
For now it's part of you

Chorus

repeat Verse 3

Outro: Bm       F        Dm       A
