Eb5
I've got my things, I'm good to go
G5
You met me at the terminal
C5                Ab5                      Eb5 Bb5             
Just one more plane ride and it's done


Eb5
We stood like statues at the gate
G5
Vacation's come and gone too late
C5                  Ab5                  Eb5 Bb5
There's so much sun where I'm from
                                            Eb5 G5 C5 Ab5
I had to give it away, had to give you away


Eb5
And we spent four days on an
G5
Island at your family's old hotel
C5                Ab5          Eb5         
Sometimes perfection can be
                      Bb5              Ab5      
It can be perfect hell, perfect...


Eb5                                             Bb5      
Hours pass, and she still counts the minutes

That I am not there, I swear I didn't mean
C5
For it to feel like this
                              G5
Like every inch of me is bruised, bruised
Eb5                                                Bb5
And don't fly fast. Oh, pilot can you help me?

Can you make this last? This plane is all I got
      C5                  
So keep it steady, now
                              G5      Ab5
Cause every inch you see is bruised

SOLO

BASE 
( Eb5 G5 C5 Ab5 Eb5 Bb5 )

Eb5                  
I lace my Chucks, I walk the aisle
G5                              C5
I take my pills, the babies cry
            Ab5               Eb5      
All I hear is what's playing through
Bb5
The in-flight radio
Eb5
Now every word of every song
G5                              C5
I ever heard that made me wanna stay
Ab5               Eb5            
Is what's playing through
       Bb5                  Eb5 
The in-flight radio, and I
        G5                     C5 Ab5      
And I am , finally waking up


Eb5                                             Bb5      
Hours pass, and she still counts the minutes

That I am not there, I swear I didn't mean
C5
For it to feel like this
                              G5
Like every inch of me is bruised, bruised
Eb5                                             Bb5
Don't fly fast. Oh, pilot can you help me?

Can you make this last? This plane is all I got
      C5                  
So keep it steady, now

Cause every inch you see is bruised, yeah


Eb5
So read your books, but stay out late
         G5                       C5
Some nights, some nights, and don't think
                          Ab5      
That you can't stop by the bar
Eb5                                                  G5
You haven't shown your face here since the bad news
C5
Well I'm here till close, with fingers crossed
      Ab5
Each night cause your place isn't far


Eb5                  Bb5                              C5 G5
And hours pass, and hours pass, yeah, yeah... 
Eb5                                          Bb5      
Yeah, yeah, she still counts the minutes

That I am not there, I swear I didn't mean
C5
For it to feel like this
                              G5
Like every inch of me is bruised, bruised
Eb5                                                Bb5
