Main Riff. Repeats throughout almost entire song.
e|----------------------------------------------------------------------|
B|----------------------------------------------------------------------|
G|--2-3p2---0-----------------------------------------------------------|
D|---3---3---3-2--------------------------------------------------------|
A|-3-------3------------------------------------------------------------|
E|----------------------------------------------------------------------|
The only part that is different comes after "But nothing ever happened, and never will"
and that is just
e|-----------|
B|-----------|
G|-----------|
D|-3-----2---|
A|-----------|
E|-----------|
You'll have to listen to the song to get the timing right, and it goes back and forth
both riffs but its pretty simple and straightforward.

You took your hand
From the sky
Said you were tired
Of doing someone else's job
Then the moon fell
And shattered on the ground
I said "I’m sorry for the last six months,
It’s not your fault you're stronger than the sky"
The nights were darker
'til they put it back together
The days were brighter though
I thought so at least
I climbed the clouds with you
When it was time to take it back
It looked awfully heavy,
But you just said,
"Relax, I’m just pretending to play God...
It’s a one time thing, I promise
Besides,
I can quit when I want."
And then the rain fell
Onto our eyelashes
We closed our eyes on that Tuesday night
And held our hands together
But nothing ever happened
And never will
You’re as human as me
I’m as flawless as you
Perfect is a word made up by a fool
You can't count on page to erase all your doubt
A few dollars won't make that broken heart any better
A flower can't heal time
But the truth can take lies from their
Pedestal and push them to the floor
You can't prove you'll miss me if you don't stay
A picture’s worth a thousand words,
But your love is much more
We can say "one day" all we want.
But I’d much rather it be "today"
You’re on tip toes waiting for the sunlight
And I can't wait for this rain to go away
