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

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