Verse:
D MajorD G+G
Day starts and you make marks on the checklist
D MajorD
Of the things you missed when I
G+G G/BG/B
Came by and we wasted time
G+G D MajorD
On the coffee highs and lightrail trips.
Pre-chorus:
G+G G/BG/B
My home's in California, but you live in South Georgia,
G+G B minorBm C majorC G+G
The world spun us together and fast away.
G+G B minorBm G/BG/B
But now our time is over, so I'll keep my composure,
D MajorD G+G
We're both just spinning backwards in the airway.
Chorus:
G+G C majorC D MajorD
Cause we go our own ways, we travel by airplane,
G+G
And I swear one day we'll meet up down
C2
In some southwestern sleepy town,

And it's hard to see a shooting star without screaming from
C majorC D MajorD
The beat of my heart to the sky,
G+G
Don't let this be our last goodbye.
Bridge:
G+G
You're up in the air,
D MajorD
You're carefree.
G+G
I'm building paper airplanes,

That won't fly properly.
G+G
The minute hand was turning slower
D MajorD
When you said it wasn't over,
G+G
Reset some orbital,
D MajorD D/AD/A
Our hearts and clocks in the terminal
Pre-chorus:
G+G G/BG/B
You're on a flight to California,
G+G
But you're still in South Georgia,
G+G
If I knew better I might say
B minorBm C majorC G+G
The stars aligned.
C majorC G+G
Just for the briefest moment
B minorBm D MajorD
When the world was slowly turning
C majorC G+G D MajorD
Now it seems it's getting faster than we've ever seen before.

G+G C majorC D MajorD
Cause we go our own ways, we travel by airplane,

And I swear one day we'll meet up down

In some southwestern sleepy town,

And it's hard to see a shooting star without screaming from

The beat of my heart to the sky,

Don't let this be our last goodbye.

As I go my own way,

It's cold on this airplane

And I said i'm terrified
C majorC G+G
That all of this is just inside my mind

Cause we go our own ways, we travel by airplane,

Screaming from the beat of my heart, to the sky

Don't let this be our last goodbye.
