Verse 1:
C\t\tG C majorC
It's the last hour before you leave
Dm\t G+G
Staying up on the balcony
\t\t Am\t\t G+G
Counting stars and listening to you singing in your sleep
C\t G\t\t C majorC
I wonder what time it is back home
\t Dm\t\t\tG
I wonder how fast that airplane goes
\t Am\t\t G+G
Flying over oceans, dialing broken telephones
F\t C\t\t F\t C\t F\t G+G
One final kiss, it's been coming to this since before we even met
C\t\t F\t\t C\t\t G+G
You got something on your mind you're trying to forget
F\t\tC\t F\t C\t\tF\t\t G+G
You been saying you know you got to choose, but it ain't happened yet
DmDm E minorEm FF
And we'll come home smashed
Dm\t Em\t FF
And we'll forget to ask
Dm\t E minorEm F\t\t G+G
And break in half all over the bed
Verse 2:
C majorC G\t\t\t C majorC
Walking home backwards through the park
\t Dm\t\t G+G
Stepping on flowers in the dark
\t Am\t G+G
It's the last hour in your heart
F\t C\t F\t C\t\t F\t\t\t G+G
I know you don't want to come home with the stars falling out of your eyes
C\t\t F\t\t C\t\t G+G
You got something on your mind that you're trying to hide
You're running, baby
F\t C\t F\t C majorC
all out of space in your suitcase
\tF\t\t G+G
But you can't make up your mind
\t DmDm E minorEm FF
And there's no more time
Dm\t E minorEm FF
And you have to decide
DmDm E minorEm F\t\t\t\tG
Which one you'll keep\t and which one you're leaving behind
