Capo 1st fret
When playing a G in the verses, you can hammer on/pull off to the 5th and 2nd fret of the high E string
to get closer to what Jack plays.

[Verse 1]
 
    G
The light was leaving and the west it was blue
    C                   G
The children's laughter sang
 
And skipping just like the stones they threw
       C                        C
Their voices echoed across the way
             D
It's getting late
 
 
[Chorus]
 
G      F            C            D
It was just another night with a sunset and a
G        F             C               D
moonrise not so far behind to give us just enough light
    G        F             C               D
To lay down underneath the stars listen to papa's translations
G       F                 C                D
Of the stories across the sky, we drew our own constellations

[Verse 2]
 
G
  The west winds often last too long
    C                                         G
The wind may calm down nothing ever feels the same
 
Sheltered under the Kamani tree
C                        G
Waiting for the passing rain
 
Clouds keep moving to uncover the scene
C                                 G
Stars above us chasing the day away
 
To find the stories that we sometimes need
C
Listen close enough
         C              D
All else fades, fades away
 
 
[Chorus]
 
G      F            C            D
It was just another night with a sunset and a
G        F             C               D
moonrise not so far behind to give us just enough light
    G        F             C               D
To lay down underneath the stars listen to papa's translations
G       F                C                  D
Of the stories across the sky, we drew our own constellations
