     F                           Dm                        Em        Am
It's 4 in the morning and you're careful not to wake your family up
                F                       Dm                     Em
Sounds like the driver is early and you try to pay attention when he talks
            Am
that's his daughter on the dashboard
        F                                  Dm
And you hope he's this proud of her if she ends up just like him

Short chorus:

       F                              Dm                               Em
It was crazy at the airport and you'd rather read the news than try to talk
       Am
to the woman on your right who
          F                                   Dm
says "you don't believe that do you?" You ask why then bite your tongue
        Dm
and pay attention till she's done

Chorus:
            C                  Am            G
Telling you how this ain't the travesty they say it is
                    C                     Am              G
Even if you don't believe that what she's telling you is true
             Dm    Am
You're still listening
           Dm  Em      F
To her and him... and me

Instrumental:
F Dm Em Am
F Dm Em

Verse 3:
     Am
Even now from the Marriott
             F                             Dm
Where you're plugging in your laptop and untangling your earbuds
       Dm
Let us know when you can hear us
          Dm
'cause my friend your kind of views

Chorus:
             C                  Am          G
Make me feel like we're less divided than I fear we are
                    C                      Am               G
Even if you don't believe the hearts we're working with are true
             Dm    Am
You're still listening
           Dm  Em      F
To her and him... and me
          F                             G
When it's us who should be listening to you
         F                           G
And it's me I should be listening to you
                   C           Am             G               F
And if we travel together only ever down this one way street
