[Verse 1]
C ( F ) C
Somewhere high up in the air there
( F ) Am ( F ) C
I had long forgotten I belong to you
( F ) C ( F ) C
Some unconscious stream of twisted logic
( F ) Am G C
Caught me in its whirlwind, left me black and blue
[Chorus 1]
F Am
I was senseless, battered and defenceless
C G
Rain became relentless, leaving barren skies
F Am
I was broken, all I left unspoken
C G C
Left me torn wide open, barely still alive
[Verse 2]
C ( F ) C
Found your letter sealed away in storage
( F ) Am ( F ) C
Under my pretences, buried out of view
( F ) C ( F ) C
I recalled it hidden in a notebook
( F ) Am G C
Tattered, ruffled pages old but good as new
[Chorus 2]
F Am
I was listless, how could I have missed this?
C G
If you are the groundswell, I'm tossed in your tide
F Am
I was certain if I'd seen it comin'
C G C
I'd have started running back at the starting line

[Verse 3]
C ( F ) C
Well I faltered, left you at the altar
( F ) Am ( F ) C
Offering my apologies and my gratitude
( F ) C ( F ) C
Now there's a sinking feeling in my chest
( F ) Am G C
You're gonna love me less when I return to you
[Chorus 3]
F Am
But you were never one to keep a record
C G
One to hold against me all I failed to prove
F Am
I've been tethered, floating like a feather
C G C
Anxious in my roaming, stranded on the move
