My pulse says 23 beats an hour - that can’t be right
E minorEm B minorBm C majorC E minorEm
Maybe that’s why I’m falling asleep here at the traffic light
E minorEm B minorBm C majorC E minorEm
I can’t hear a word you say but I can see you from the corner of my eye

One hand out the window, Lord, and my brain’s up in the sky

Radio station coming in I can hear the choir sing

E minorEm B minorBm C majorC E minorEm
All the harp players’ robes were pressed and clean and white

When they issued me my wings I set straight out flying

Please won’t you meet me with another pair?
