Verse 1:
F minorFm
We cross a country
AbAb
In an airplane with the wings on fire
C minorCm Bb majorBb
Hanging from the seat belt sign
F minorFm
That’s the one thing
AbAb
There’s no safety in desire
C minorCm Bb majorBb
Preserving life is as good as dying
Pre-Chorus:
F minorFm AbAb
And these could be the best or darkest days
C minorCm Bb majorBb
The lines we walk are paper thin
F minorFm AbAb
And we could pull this off or push away
C minorCm Bb majorBb
Cause you and me have always been
Chorus:
N.C. F minorFm AbAb
So close, so close to giving up
C minorCm Bb majorBb
So close to going all the way
F minorFm AbAb
So close, so close to taking off
C minorCm Bb majorBb
So close to going nowhere
F minorFm AbAb
So close, so close to giving up
C minorCm Bb majorBb
So close to going all the way
F minorFm AbAb
So close, so close to taking off
C minorCm Bb majorBb
So close to going nowhere, nowhere
Verse 2:
F minorFm AbAb
I heard you whisper over the hum of an electric chair
C minorCm Bb majorBb
To live like this could take its toll
F minorFm
But you’re no stranger
AbAb
To the high of almost getting there
C minorCm Bb majorBb
Are we losing touch or taking hold?
Pre-Chorus:
F minorFm AbAb
And these could be the best or darkest days
C minorCm Bb majorBb
The lines we walk are paper thin
F minorFm AbAb
And we could pull this off or push away
C minorCm Bb majorBb
Cause you and me have always been
Chorus:
N.C. F minorFm AbAb
So close, so close to giving up
C minorCm Bb majorBb
So close to going all the way
F minorFm AbAb
So close, so close to taking off
C minorCm Bb majorBb
So close to going nowhere
F minorFm AbAb
So close, so close to giving up
C minorCm Bb majorBb
So close to going all the way
F minorFm AbAb
So close, so close to taking off
C minorCm Bb majorBb
So close to going nowhere, nowhere
Bridge:
F minorFm AbAb
I wanna go there
C minorCm Bb majorBb
I wanna go there
F minorFm AbAb
I wanna go there
C minorCm Bb majorBb
With you
Chorus:
F minorFm AbAb
So close, so close to giving up

So close to going all the way
