Hi there, fellow Carbon Leaf fan. Make sure you feel the abrupt change

between the

groovier first half of the song and the faster, less syncopated second half.

And if at all

get some vocal harmonies for the "whittle away, whittle away" part. Enjoy!

Verse 1:
D G D
G D
I lit a light on my gloom, and now there's only a half-moon
D G D
G D
I need to find a way home, on the moon to be alone
D G D
And so we make our way through the sand of a sullen day
G D
Whittle away, whittle away
D G D
Dreaming in ether, leave atmosphere, breathing in Neptune's chandelier
G D
Whittle away, whittle away
Chorus:
A D A D
Lift away and float it on into space
A D G A D
Into the sublime celestial brine… It's almost time

Verse 2:

I made it up in my room, from a dream it is rough hewn

(Home) Whittle away, whittle away

I make a vessel for home, carve it out with a gemstone

(Home) Whittle away, whittle away

Land of sorrow, sift away through the sand of a sullen day

(Home) Whittle away, whittle away

Dreaming in ether, leave atmosphere, breathing in Neptune's chandelier

(Home) Whittle away, whittle away
Chorus
