*CAPO 3*

C
I've got my things, I'm good to go
Em
You met me at the terminal
Am            F                    C   C7M
Just one more plane ride and it's done.
C
We stood like statues at the gate
Em
Vacation's come and gone too late
Am              F
There's so much sun where I'm from
C                   C7M               C                               
I had to give it away, had to give you away.

instrumental: C  Em  Am  F

C                           Em    
And we spent four days on an island
                     Am
At your family's old hotel.
             F
Sometimes perfection can be,
C                 C7M     
It can be perfect Hell,
F
Perfect.


(Refrain)
F
Hours pass, and she still counts the minutes
       C
That I am not there
                                F
I swear I didn't mean for it to feel like this
                         C        C7M
Like every inch of me is bruised, bruised.
F
Don't fly fast.  Oh, pilot can you help me
        C
Can you make this last?  This plane is all I got
           F
So keep it steady now, cos every inch you see is 
C     C7M    
Bruised

Verse:
C
I lace my Chucks I walk the aisle,
Em
I take my pills, the babies cry.
Am
All I hear 
          F
Is what's playing through the in-flight radio
C
Now every word of every song
Em                           
I've ever heard that made me 
Am
want to stay
          F
Is what's playing through the in-flight radio
C
And I, 
Em
I Am 
Am
finally waking up.
F

(Refrain)

(Bridge)
C                     Em
So read your books but stay out late
Am
Some nights, some nights.
    C                   Em               Am
And don't think that you can't stop by the bar.
    C                 Em                     Am
You haven't shown your face here since the bad news.
    C                   Em
I'm here til close, with fingers crossed,
     F                   G                          
Each night cos your place isn't far.
    F              C7M ( C4 )
And hours pass, and hours pass.
F
Yeah, Yeah

(Refrain)
