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

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