[Verse 1] 
D         B        E                    G
I imagine you in a place wide open and beautiful
          E               G        D
Where the sun sets wildly over the horizon,
D             B                    E              G
In the moment you learned we can't concentrate on everything,
          E                    G                 D
Though it breaks your heart as strongly as you'd like to.

[Verse 2]
      D                     B                    E               G
These sun bleached memories see you stand on the beach aside the ocean,
E              G                D
Underneath the clouds above the badlands.

           D              B                     E                   G
I see your picture like a still frame standing strongly beneath the sun,
            E              G                     D
When it was you, me and no one but the ghosts we shared.
                        B                   E
Though there was always talk, we could have lived without it,
            G                 E                 D
Though we'd come to doubt it, always surrounded by it.
                  B                   E                   G
And for whatever lost, there were the hundred things we'd learned.
       E           G                     D
To the point of no return we would stand by it.

[Verse 3]
    D         B                   E            G
And I imagine you like all that's pure left in America,
    E                       G        D
The red grass prairies, the Niobrara river.
D                    B                    E              G
Though in the moment you learned we can't concentrate on everything,
         E            G       D
You will always be my Antonia Shimerda.
