Verse 1:
D MajorD
Gate 22, 2 hour delay
D MajorD
She was waiting on a plane to L.A
B minorBm
I didn't see the harm in sitting down
A augmentedA
At the wrong gate
D MajorD
She said hello, where you headed to?
                 B minorBm
I didn't lie, but I bent the truth
               A augmentedA
Said I'd go anywhere with you
        G+G
And before long

Chorus:
    D MajorD
It was midnight in the middle of JFK
                       B minorBm
Trying to take her mind off the fallin' rain
                    G+G
I was saying anything to make her laugh

Never wanted anything so bad
D MajorD
She got me wishing that she could stay

Doesn't even know that I missed my plane
B minorBm               G+G
Not a single thing I wouldn't trade
           D MajorD
For a ticket to L.A
D MajorD        B minorBm G+G
A augmentedA ticket to L.A


Verse 2:
D MajorD
She opened up after a drink
D MajorD
Said she's starting law school in the spring
B minorBm
And by the time that she had three
A augmentedA
I knew almost everything
D MajorD
Lightning flashed across the sky
D MajorD                   B minorBm
I said it probably wasn't safe to fly
                A augmentedA
Secretly I hoped that she'd be stuck with me all night

Chorus:
    D MajorD
It was midnight in the middle of JFK
                       B minorBm
Trying to take her mind off the fallin' rain
                    G+G
I was saying anything to make her laugh
G+G
Never wanted anything so bad
D MajorD
She got me wishing that she could stay
D MajorD
Doesn't even know that I missed my plane
B minorBm               G+G
Not a single thing I wouldn't trade
          A augmentedA B minorBm
For a ticket to L.A

Now gate 22 is calling out her name

She wrote her number on my hand and walked away


Chorus:
D MajorD
Alone here in the middle of JFK
D MajorD
Sitting at a bar at an empty gate
D MajorD
I'd do anything to bring her back
G+G
Never wanted anything so bad
D MajorD
She got me wishing that she could stay
D MajorD
Doesn't even know that I missed my plane
                G+G
Not a single thing I wouldn't trade
         D MajorD
For a ticket to L.A
