Key: F#

Verse 1:
    C                     Am           G
She said unto me, this is time you can see
     F                         C
as a line she did draw in the sand
C                              Am          G
    Somewhere along here’s the last guitar song dear
        F              G              C
that’ll come from your mouth and your hand
   Am                   G
So play me a song and I hope that I’m wrong
   C                         F
it might be the last one you sing
   Am                    G
If morning arrives, then please live your lives
    C                            F
and embrace what this sandy line brings
   Am                   G
If neither of us are to wake…

Verse 2:
C                            Am          G
   Morning did come with the dawn of the sun
  F                       C
I left with a smile in my eyes
     C                         Am        G
It’s funny to think that we’re gone in a blink
     F                      C
as I gazed at the ocean and sky
     Am                       G
So I sat down to play, it was clear that one day
C                      F
all that I know will be gone
    Am                        G
Far from feeling fear, it was suddenly clear
           C                      F
there were so many things I’d not done
   Am               G
So many excuses had won

Chorus 1:
     F                 G
So I went to that open mic
       C                      F
no one clapped, but I felt so light
F                     G
Told that girl that I liked her
         C                   F
she just laughed, but I felt lighter
         F                    G
And I’ll carry on living this way
        C             F
getting lighter every day
        F G
Until I fly
      C
‘til I fly

Instrumental:
C Am G F G C C Am G F G C

Verse 3:
  C                     Am            G
I say unto you, this is time and it’s true
       F                   C
just imagine a line in the sand
C                    Am              G
Somewhere along is a place you’ll no longer
   F            G            C
be able to take your lover’s hand
     Am                       G
I’ll play you this song and I hope that I’m wrong
   C                         F
it might be the last one you hear
   Am                    G
If morning arrives, then please live your lives
      C                       F
and embrace every one of your fears
       Am                   G
But if neither of us are to wake…

Chorus 2:
    F                       G
I’m thankful for those open mics
C                            F
   glad I told those girls I liked
        F                      G
Cos the moments I conquered my fears
            C                        F
They’re the footsteps that brought me here
   F                        G
in truth when I play this song
   C                 F
if one person listens on
            F G
It makes me fly
         C F
makes me fly
         F G
makes me fly
         C
makes me fly
            F G
It makes me fly
         C F
makes me fly
         F
makes me fly
         G
makes me fly
         C
makes me fly
