C

     G           
On a plane, somewhere over the sea
          Am
Above the rain, the bottle sets me free
          G       
I turn to stone, fall back in my seat
             Am       C                         
The cuts are gone but somehow I'm still bleeding

              Em7
You know it's true
        G
There's nothing I can do 
              Em7
You know it?s true
        G
There?s nothing I can do
         Am
You know it?s true
C                               G
There?s nothing I can do about you

C

        G               
Move to France, La Rochelle or Nice
      Am
Get a house, Pretend to live in peace
          G
Paint the walls, A blackout of your face
          Am          C                     G
Stalk the halls, Then move into the basement



              Em7
You know it's true
        G
There's nothing I can do 
               Em7
You know it?s true
G
There?s nothing I can do
       Am
Pick a fight, 
     C
it's just you being right
     Am    C
Walk away, there's nothing I can say
          Am
You know it's true
C                               G
There's nothing I can do about you


            F         Am       C        G
So don't you mind the gap when you leave
            F    Am       C          G
There'll be time enough to turn tail tomorrow
             F        Am       C        G
So don't you mind the gap when you leave


C       G
Broken up like a tanker on the rocks
    Am
Not room for much, I'm like the Cubs against the Sox
     G    
On a plane, somewhere over the sea
       Am     C                               
I fall asleep convinced that I ain't breathing


              Em7
You know it's true
        G
There's nothing I can do 
               Em7
You know it?s true
G
There?s nothing I can do
       Am
Pick a fight, 
     C
it's just you being right
     Am    C
Walk away, there's nothing I can say
          Am
You know it's true
C                               G
There's nothing I can do about you


            F         Am       C        G
So don't you mind the gap when you leave
            F    Am       C          G
There'll be time enough to turn tail tomorrow
             F        Am       C        G
So don't you mind the gap when you leave
            F    Am       C          G
There'll be time enough to turn tail tomorrow
             F        Am       C        G
So don't you mind the gap when you leave
