Intro:
C C Dm G
Verse 1:
C
Woke up at 5am
Just to have a few more hours to spend
F
Watching the sunrise
Fm
That was the first time that I cried
Dm G
Cuz I knew soon as I saw the sun
C
This day would soon be done
And you'd be on your way
A
On a plane across the world
Dm
And I'd be on my own again
G C
Crying at the airport by myself
Instrumental
C Dm G
Verse 2:
C
We pack up our things to go
Both of us moving so slow
F
To leave the hotel room
Fm
It's all happening too soon
Dm
So I stop
G
To look you in the eyes
C
As if this is the last time that we'll ever be
A
Together in a place like this
Dm
I give you one last kiss
G C
Before I'm crying at the airport by myself
Instrumental
C Dm G
Verse 3:
C
Watching the world pass us by
I can't help but check the time
F
It keeps getting away
Fm
Now there's nothing left to say
Dm G
So I put your hand in mine
C
And try not to acknowledge the reality
A
You won't be coming home with me
Dm
And I'll be on my own again
G C
Crying at the airport by myself
Instrumental
C#m
Outro
F
Now I'm bracing for the pain
Fm
Try to memorize your face
Em
Look back at me one last time
A
Before you walk away
Dm
And leave me standing all alone
G C
Crying at the airport by myself
