[Intro]
C F (x2)
[Verse 1]
C
If I ever moved to London
F
Would you come over to visit?
G
Or the plane over in Newark
F G
Stuck in traffic on the Smithshead
[Verse 2]
C
Listen to the pilot tell you
F
"Keep your seatbelts securely fastened"
G
As the clouds come out, the night rolls in
F G
As you wonder how this happened
[Verse 3]
C
Order up your Whiskey Ginger
F
Just to calm your nerves
G
While you spin the ring around your finger
F G
Remember every word
[Chorus]
Am
Well it's hard to notice
F
The time when it's gone
C
Just like a lotus
G
Ain't no dirt in the dawn
C G Am F G
And I've run out of ways to tell you, I'm barely holding on
[Verse 4]
C
If I ever moved to Nashville
F
Would you come on down and visit?
G
Gas your car up at the QuickCheck
F G
Fly the turnpike, grab a ticket
[Verse 5]
C
And like all your favourite singers
F
Would you scream out every word?
G
While you check the mirrors without a turn
F G
Just to make sure no-one heard
[Verse 6]
C
Pull on over in Virginia
F
Just to stretch your bones
G
While you spin the ring around your finger
F G
Wondering how you're not alone
[Chorus]
Am
Well it's hard to notice
F
The time when it's gone
C
Just like a lotus
G
Ain't no dirt in the dawn
Am
And it's hard to focus
F
Where time can stand still
C
Just like the locust
G
All in a field
C G Am F G
And I've run out of ways to tell you, I'm barely holding on
C G Am F G
And I've run out of ways to show you, forever ain't that long
[Instrumental break]
C G Am F G
Am F G F C
Am F C G
[Outro]
C G Am F G
And I've run out of ways to tell you, I'm barely holding on
C G Am F G
And I've run out of ways to show you, forever ain't that long
C G Am F G
And I've run out of ways to tell you, I'm barely holding on
C G Am F G
And I've run out of ways to show you, w'ere never going home
C
At least not alone
