Capo third

Verse:


C5
I've got my things, I'm good to go
E5
You met me at the terminal
A5            F5                   C5   C5
Just one more plane ride and it's done.
C5
We stood like statues at the gate
E5
Vacation's come and gone too late
A5              F5
There's so much sun where I'm from
C5                   C5               C5                               
I had to give it away, had to give you away.
C5                           E5    
And we spent four days on an island
                     A5
At your family's old hotel.
             F5
Sometimes perfection can be,
C5                 C5     
It can be perfect Hell,
F5
Perfect.


Chorus:

F5
Hours pass, and she still counts the minutes
       C5
That I am not there
                                F5
I swear I didn't mean for it to feel like this
                         C5
Like every inch of me is bruised, bruised.
F5
Don't fly fast.  Oh, pilot can you help me
        C5
Can you make this last?  This plane is all I got
           F5
So keep it steady now, cos every inch you see is 
C5     C5    
Bruised

Verse:

C5
I lace my Chucks I walk the aisle,

E5
I take my pills, the babies cry.
A5
All I hear 
            F5                 C5         C5
Is what's playing through the in-flight radio

C5          
Now every word of every song

E5                           A5
I've ever heard that made me want to stay

            F5                   C5       C5
Is what's playing through the in-flight radio

C5      C5            F5
And I, I am finally waking up.

Chorus

F5
Hours pass, and she still counts the minutes
       C5
That I am not there
                                F5
I swear I didn't mean for it to feel like this
                         C5
Like every inch of me is bruised, bruised.
F5
Don't fly fast.  Oh, pilot can you help me
        C5
Can you make this last?  This plane is all I got
           F5
So keep it steady now, cos every inch you see is 
C5     C5    
Bruised



Bridge:

C5                     E5
So read your books but stay out late
A5
Some nights, some nights.
    C5                   E5               A5
And don't think that you can't stop by the bar.
    C5                 E5                     A5
You haven't shown your face here since the bad news.
    C5                   E5
I'm here til close, with fingers crossed,
     F5                   G5                          
Each night cos your place isn't far.
    F5              C5 ( C5 )
And hours pass, and hours pass.
F5
Yeah, Yeah

Chorus

F5
Hours pass, and she still counts the minutes
       C5
That I am not there
                                F5
I swear I didn't mean for it to feel like this
                         C5
Like every inch of me is bruised, bruised.
F5
Don't fly fast.  Oh, pilot can you help me
        C5
Can you make this last?  This plane is all I got
           F5
So keep it steady now, cos every inch you see is 
C5     C5    
Bruised
