full tab. This is my first transcription, but I'm certain all the chords are accurate.

A(2) Amaj7A6A
Ever since we said our goodbyes
A(2) Amaj7A6A
The onion rings, the phone makes me cry
Bm7A(2)
Something isn't right
Bm7GA
Like the Deep Blue without the Great White
A(2) Amaj7A6A
In the morning open your eyes
A(2) Amaj7A6A
The waterfalls, the fire flies
Bm7A(2)
You're an abacus
Bm7GA
And my heart was counting on us
DE
Your heart's got a heavy load
C#mBm7(2)
There's still a long way to go
A
Keep your eyes on the road
A(2) Amaj7A6A
Crescent moon sings me to sleep
A(2) Amaj7A6A
The birches bark, the willows weep
Bm7A(2)
But I lie awake
Bm7GA
I'm adrift without a snowflake
DE
Your heart's got a heavy load
C#mBm7(2)
There's still a long way to go
A
Keep your eyes on the road
