Intro: A E A A E A 
 
 A 
I remember running wild and free 
 
Me and all my friends would meet 
                                        D 
In the valley where the climbing tree grows 
    E 
And in her branches we would play 
 
She would keep our secrets safe 
                                  A 
From hidden dangers of the world below 
 
 A 
And we could solve the mystery 
 
If we could only count the rings 
                                   D 
And see the story only they could show 
    E 
How old it is how long it's been 
 
Since loving hands had planted it 
                                  A 
How long it's gonna live nobody knows 
 
Chorus 
 
 D  A    E    A 
Is love like this 
 D                           E 
A magic feeling better left alone 
 D   A   E  F#m 
Can we hold it 
 D                                    E 
Or is it just a thing that comes and goes 
 NC      A   E A A E A 
Nobody knows 
 
 A 
I remember shooting fireworks 
 
Out into the universe 
                                   D 
We'd light 'em up and watch 'em disappear 
      E 
Like days that vanished in a haze 
 
Off into the milky way 
                                         A 
I wonder where on earth went all those years 
 
 A 
Now I could try to win your trust 
 
Say lots of things and make things up 
                                     D 
But in the end that wouldn't make it so 
     E 
The more you ask the more you live 
 
The more you try to question it 
                               A 
The more the answer is nobody knows 
  
Repeat Chorus 
 
 D  A   E   F#m 
Can we hold it 
    D                                 E 
Or is it just a thing that comes and goes 
 NC      A   E 
Nobody knows 
 A           E A 
Nobody knows
