E asus4 a e asus4 a
We wake up every morning rush downstairs to the car
E asus4 a e asus4 a
Jump inside it with mummy her eyes are shining like stars
E asus4 a e asus4 a
The sun's like something that God sent the air's as fresh as our clothes
E asus4 a e asus4 a
We're going to the golden arches our life's so perfect it glows
E esus4 e esus4
And everything's fine everything's fine

Chorus
E a asus4 a
Daddy's a postman daddy's a postman
E a asus4 a
Daddy's a postman daddy's a postman (repeat intro)

When we are old we won't have poverty or destitution
Be a e
We will be able to afford a nursing home or an institution
E asus4 a
And daddy's a postman (3 times)


E asus4 a e asus4 a
Black skin white picket fences jewels we bought for a dime
E asus4 a e asus4 a
When I came to my senses the golden arches were mine
E esus4 e esus4
And everything's fine everything's fine

Chorus
E a asus4 a
Daddy's a postman daddy's a postman /pre>

Standing On The Edge Of Summer
Thursday
In regards to the meaning of this song: Before a live performance on the EP Five Stories Falling, Geoff states “It’s about the last time I went to visit my grandmother in Columbus, and I saw that she was dying and it was the last time I was going to see her. It is about realizing how young you are, but how quickly you can go.” That’s the thing about Geoff and his sublime poetry, you think it’s about one thing, but really it’s about something entirely different. But the lyrics are still universal and omnipresent, ubiquitous, even. So relatable. That’s one thing I love about this band. I also love their live performances, raw energy and Geoff’s beautiful, imperfectly perfect vocals. His voice soothes my aching soul.

Overall about difficult moments of disappointment and vulnerability. Having hope and longing, while remaining optimistic for the future. Encourages the belief that with each new morning there is a chance for things to improve. The chorus offers a glimmer of optimism and a chance at a resolution and redemption in the future. Captures the rollercoaster of emotions of feeling lost while loving someone who is not there for you, feeling let down and abandoned while waiting for a lover. Lost with no direction, "Now I'm up in the air with the rain in my hair, Nowhere to go, I can go anywhere" The bridge shows signs of longing and a plea for companionship. The Lyrics express a desire for authentic connection and the importance of Loving someone just as they are. "Just in passing, I'm not asking. That you be anyone but you”

Magical
Ed Sheeran
How would you describe the feeling of being in love? For Ed Sheeran, the word is “Magical.” in HIS three-minute album opener, he makes an attempt to capture the beauty and delicacy of true love with words. He describes the magic of it all over a bright Pop song produced by Aaron Dessner.
