[Verse 1]
F               G             Am
    Is it enough to have some love,
F               G             Am
small enough to slip inside a book,
F               G               Am
small enough to cover with your hand, because
F             G              Am
everyone around you wants to look?

[Verse 2]
F               G             Am
    Is it enough to have some love,
F               G              Am
small enough to fit inside the cracks?
F               G                Am
The pieces don't fit together so good
F                          G             Am
with all the breaking and all the gluing back.

[Verse 3]
F                  G              Am
And I am still not getting what I want.
F                   G                  Am
I want to touch the back of your right arm.
F                  G             Am
I wish you could remind me who I was, because
F               G              Am
every day I'm a little further off.

[Chorus A]
F                Am        G
But you are, my love, the astronaut,
F               C       Bb
flying in the name of science.
F             Am      G
I will gladly stay an after thought
F                    C      Bb
Just bring back some nice reminders.

[Verse 4]
F             G             Am
Is it getting harder to pretend that
F                G              Am
life goes on without you in the wake? And
F               G                 Am
can you see the means without the end, in the
F              G              Am
random frantic action that we take? And

[Verse 5]
F             G           Am
is it getting easy not to care
F                G                 Am
despite the many rings around your name? It
F               G        Am
isn't funny and it isn't fair; you’ve
F                 G                Am
traveled all this way and it's the same.

[Chorus a]
F                Am        G
But you are, my love, the astronaut,
F               C       Bb
crashing in the name of science.
F             Am      G
I will gladly stay an after thought
F                    C      Bb
Just bring back some nice reminders.

[Bridge]
Dm                 Dsus2          F               G
I would tell them anything to see you split the evening, but
Dm              Dsus2         F          G
as you see I do not have an awful lot to tell.
Dm               Dsus2              F                G
Everybody's sick for something that they can find fascinating;
Dm               Dsus2        F              G
everyone but you and even you aren't feeling well.

Yes! you are, my love, the astronaut,
F               C       Bb
crashing in the name of science.
F                  Am        G
Just my luck, they found you upper half,
F           C      Bb
It's a very nice reminder.
F           C      Bb
It's a very nice reminder.

[Verse 6][Outro]
F           G                  Am
you may be acquainted with the night, but
F               G               Am
I have seen the darkness in the day, and you must
F           G          Am
know it's a terrifying sight, because
F             G               Am
you and I are living the same way.
