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