Em
If the fish swam out of the ocean
N.C.
Grew legs and they started walking
        C
And the apes climbed down from the trees
     Am                    G
Grew tall and they started talking
        Em
And the stars fell out of the sky
N.C.
And my tears rolled into the ocean
        C
And now I'm looking for a reason why
         Am                Bm
You even set my world into motion


[Chorus]
         Em
Cause if your not really here
N.C.
Then the stars don't even matter
       C
Now Im filled to the top with fear
          Am                  Bm
That it's all just a bunch of matter
         Em
Cause if your not really here
N.C.
Then i don't want to be either
  C       Am
I wanna be next to you
          Am              Bm              Em
Black and gold, black and gold, black and gold


[Verse 2]
  Em  Em
  mmm, i look up into the night sky
N.C.
  And see a thousand eyes staring back
C
  And all around these golden beacons
  Am                Bm
  I see nothing but black
  Em
  I feel a way of something beyond them
N.C.
  I don't see what i can feel
     Am
  If vision is my only validation
       Bm
  Then most of my life isn't real


[Chorus]
         Em
Cause if your not really here
N.C.
Then the stars dont even matter
        C
Now I'm filled to the top with fear
          Am                  Bm
That it's all just a bunch of matter
         Em
Cause if your not really here
N.C.
Then I don't want to be either
          C
I wanna be next to you
          Am              Bm              Em  C  Am  E
Black and gold, black and gold, black and gooollldddd
 C    Am   Bm     Em  C   Gm
mmm, woahhhhhh, ohhhh woahhhhhhh


[Chorus]
         Em
Cause if your not really here
N.C.
Then the stars don't even matter
        C
Now I'm filled to the top with fear
          Am                  Bm
That it's all just a bunch of matter
         Em
Cause if your not really here
N.C.
Then i don't want to be either
          C
I wanna be next to you
          Am              Bm              Em
Black and gold, black and gold, black and gold
