Intro: F5

G5 F5
I've heard it said the trick
Is to set your watch when you hit the plane
That way you can trick
The workings of a tired brain
But sometimes I feel sick
Sometimes I just feel so drained
And cut down to the quick
G5 E5 A5
Longing for that voice again
       G5
On the phone
           C5          F5
You always ask if I'm OK
A5              G5             F5
But it's not the same as being happy

C5 F5 G5 E5
I travelled 40,000 miles last year
And I'm working on the same again
A5 F5 G5 G5
I fell for 15 different girls
And nearly lost all of my friends
C5 F5 G5 E5
Well I am jet set, jet lagged, jaded
You're always 16 hours ahead
A5 F5 G5                          F5
Quietly reminding me how I used to be

G5 F5
Airports make me sad
I'm sure they shouldn't all be the same
But they're just landing pads
Boring tourist shopping chains
I remember times we had
Drinking while we wait for your plane
Feeling kinda bad
G5 E5 A5 F5
Wondering which one of us has changed
G5                 E5     F5           E5 G5 
Cos we used to be slick, Supple young hips
A5                       F5
romantic young kissable lips
G5          E5     F5           E5 G5 
Unbearably sharp, unbreakable heart
    A5             
With wide eyes and faith
     G5                     C5                F5
That life could never pull apart if we were OK
A5             G5                   F5  F5 
But distance kills the best of intentions
I never intended it to be this way

C5 F5 G5 E5
I travelled 40,000 miles last year
And I'm working on the same again
A5 F5 G5 G5
I fell for 15 different girls
And nearly lost all of my friends
C5 F5 G5 E5
Oh I am jet set, jet lagged, jaded
You're always 16 hours ahead
A5 F5 G5 G5
Quietly reminding me how I used to be
F5 G5
I'm trying to remember how I used to be
F5
Used to be slick
