Chords with lyrics
Verse 1:
C majorC
I saw your shoes behind the line,
E MajorE
I've seen your face a hundred times,
FF
But now only in my mind,
F minorFm
the rest of you is left behind.
C majorC
You lay there passed out on the couch
E MajorE
Words falling from your mouth.
FF
Maybe you liked to drink too much
F minorFm
I could see you losing touch
Chorus:
C majorC E MajorE
Please don't float too high,
FF
The sun will burn your wings
F minorFm
and you are everything.
C majorC E MajorE
Please just run away,
FF
the headlights they will catch you,
F minorFm
Your mother she will miss you.
Verse 2:
C majorC
So we all waited in a room
E MajorE
Flicked a switch and watched the news
FF
Waiting for a sign of you
F minorFm
Breathing was impossible to do
C majorC
So we all waited for the call
E MajorE
And wondered if you’re there at all
FF
But no one’s lips knew what to say
F minorFm
Hoping that you won’t fly away
Chorus:
C majorC E MajorE
Please don't float too high,
FF
The sun will burn your wings
F minorFm
and you are everything.
C majorC E MajorE
Please just run away,
FF
the headlights they will catch you,
F minorFm
Your mother she will miss you.
