Jackson Browne: Late for the sky
Intro:
|C |G |F |C/E |
|Dm |Am G |F |F |
C G
The words had all been spoken
F C/E
And somehow the feeling still wasn't right
Dm Am G F
And still we continued on through the night
C G
Tracing our steps from the beginning
F C/E
Until they vanished into the air
Dm Am G F C
Trying to understand how our live had led us there
F Am
Looking hard into your eyes
G G/F Em
There was nobody I'd ever known
Dm F/C Am F G Am G/B
Such an empty surprise to feel so alone
C G
Now for me, some words come easy
F C/E
But I know that they don't mean that much
Dm Am G F
Compared with the things that are said when lovers touch
C G
You never knew what I loved in you
F C/E
I don't know what you loved in me
Dm Am G F C
Maybe the picture of somebody you were hoping I might be
F Am G G/F Em
Awake again, I can't pretend and I know I’m alone
Dm F/C Am F G Am G/B
And close to the end of the feeling we've known
F C/E
How long have I been sleeping
Dm Am G F
How long have I been drifting alone through the night
F C/G
How long have I been dreaming I could make it right
F
If I closed my eyes and tried with all my might
Am
To be the one you need
Solo
|C |G |F |C/E |
|Dm |Am G |F |F |
|C |G |F |C/E |
|Dm |Am G |F C/E Dm |C |
F Am G G/F Em
Awake again, I can't pretend and I know I am alone
Dm F/C Am F G Am G/B
And close to the end of the feeling we've known
F C/E
How long have I been sleeping
Dm Am G F
How long have I been drifting alone through the night
F C/G
How long have I been running for that morning flight
C/G F
Through the whispered promises in the changing light
C G
Of the bed where we both lie
C Bb/C
Late for the sky
C Bb/C rep & fade
