Intro
A#m Ab Gb F
[Verse]
A#m Ab Gb F
You know I’ve never seen your eyes from there
A#m Ab Gb F
It was always so dark and unprepared
A#m Ab Gb F
And when the lights went out you left,
A#m Ab Gb F
I’d follow suit but I’m too scared.
A#m Ab Gb F
I know she left you because she didn’t understand
A#m Ab Gb F
Her man is brutal and it’s all got out of hand
A#m Ab Gb F
Her life is futile and she’s holding onto sand
A#m Ab Gb F
She’s hoping for the future, but the lights gone out, it’s all gone black.
[Pre-Chorus]
A#m Ab Gb F
La, la, la, la la la
A#m Ab Gb F
And when I joined you (it was too late to)
A#m Ab Gb F
You had already handled someone elses light.
A#m Ab Gb F
You’ve got too many, you got too heavy
A#m Ab Gb F
You got too solid oh it’s all too real.
[Chorus]
A#m F Ab D#
Reel me in, ‘cause I’ve stopped swimming.
A#m F Ab D#
And I’ll stand up when it all stops spinning.
A#m F Ab D#
Gm I too cold for you? Gm I too old for you?
A#m F Ab D#
I’ve got to have it, or I just might fly away.
A#m Ab Gb F
[Verse]
A#m Ab Gb F
You know I never really needed this,
A#m Ab Gb F
It wasn’t just an idea on a list.
A#m Ab Gb F
It’s never just a fun game, it’s just this.
A#m Ab Gb F
It’s just a nightmare, it’s just too high up here.
[Pre-Chorus]
A#m Ab Gb F
La, la, la, la la la
A#m Ab Gb F
And when I joined you (it was too late to)
A#m Ab Gb F
You had already handled someone elses light.
A#m Ab Gb F
You’ve got too many, you got too heavy
A#m Ab Gb F
You got too solid oh it’s all too real.
[Chorus]
A#m F Ab D#
Reel me in, ‘cause I’ve stopped swimming.
A#m F Ab D#
And I’ll stand up when it all stops spinning.
A#m F Ab D#
Gm I too cold for you? Gm I too old for you?
A#m F Ab D#
I’ve got to have it, or I just might fly away.
[Pre-Chorus]
A#m Ab Gb F
La, la, la, la la la
A#m Ab Gb F
And when I joined you (it was too late to)
A#m Ab Gb F
You had already handled someone elses light.
A#m Ab Gb F
You’ve got too many, you got too heavy
A#m Ab Gb F
You got too solid oh it’s all too real.
[Chorus]
A#m F Ab D#
Reel me in, ‘cause I’ve stopped swimming.
A#m F Ab D#
And I’ll stand up when it all stops spinning.
A#m F Ab D#
Gm I too cold for you? Gm I too old for you?
A#m F Ab D#
I’ve got to have it, or I just might fly away.
[Outro]
A#m Ab Gb F
La, la, la, la la la (fly away...)
A#m Ab Gb F
La, la, la, la la la (fly away...)
