   F         C
 I've locked myself in a hotel room
   F            C
 Then waited all night for the walls to move
   F            C
 I've loved some girls that I barely knew
   F              C
 I've made some friends, and I've lost some too
 F           C
 Crashed my car, I was seventeen
  F             C
 My mother in the seat riding next to me
   F             C
 The things I've learned from a broken mirror
    F           C
 How a face can change when a heart knows fear

   Dm
 For all the things my eyes have seen,
   F
 The best by far is you

       C        Am
 If I could fly, then I would know
         F               C
 What life looks like from up above and down below
       G         Am
 I'd keep you safe, I'd keep you dry
      F              C
 Don't be afraid, Cecilia, I'm the satellite

 And you're the sky

F C G Am


   F          C
 I've café crawled through Amsterdam
 F              C
 Been around the world with a punk rock band
   F             C
 And I've seen London, and I've played Japan
 F               C
 I've been knocked down, I got up again

   Dm
 For all the places I have been,
   F
 I'm no place without you

       C        Am
 If I could fly, then I would know
         F               C
 What life looks like from up above and down below
       G         Am
 I'd keep you safe, I'd keep you dry
      F              C
 Don't be afraid, Cecilia, I'm the satellite
        F
 And you're the sky


 F C G Am
 Oh, Oh
       F C
 I'm the satellite
        G Am
 And you're the sky

F C

   Dm
 For all the things my hands have held,
   F
 The best by far is you

       C        Am
 If I could fly, then I would know
         F               C
 What life looks like from up above and down below
       G         Am
 I'd keep you safe, I'd keep you dry
      N/C
 Don't be afraid, Cecilia, I'm the satellite
        F C
 And you're the sky
        G Am
 And you're the sky
       F C
 I'm the satellite
        G Am
 And you're the sky
        F C F C F C
