[Intro]
A E Dmaj7 E x4
[Verse]
A
I saw your father in the hall
A E
His ghost is living in the walls
Dmaj7
I heard him crying while you slept
Dmaj7 E
I heard him breaking things after you left
A
I watched you crawl into my bed
A E
With curses spilling from your head
Dmaj7
You said "We're just the walking dead"
Dmaj7 E
So I pulled the trigger and we floated off
[Chorus]
A E
Into the air, Into the air
Dmaj7 E
Into the air, Into the air
A E
Up in the air, We're in the air
Dmaj7 E
Up in the air, Up in the air
[Solo]
A E Dmaj7 E x4
[Verse]
A E
I used to worry about the time
A E
That I lost my teeth along the line
Dmaj7
So I carved the apple from my eye
Dmaj7 E
And gave it to you before I went away
A E
Blood ran into the kitchen sink
A E
Your hand and lives are running pink
Dmaj7
I sat and watched you as your ring
Dmaj7 E
Slipped off and rolled across the kitchen floor
(strumming pattern changes)
A E
They cut your eyes wide open
A E
And pour into your precious head
Dmaj7
My reach don't go that far dear
Dmaj7 E
But please oh please don't let them in
[Bridge]
F#m E D A
I sank into the sea
F#m E D A
Wrapped in piano strings
F#m E D A
Few words could open me
F#m E D
But you knew them all
[Verse]
A E
Now I just sleep beneath your floor
A E
My ghost just tries to keep you warm
Dmaj7
I've seen the end, I've lost the war
Dmaj7 E
One day you're 20 years just like the rain
[Chorus]
A E
I hear the engines, They're roaring in our mouths
Dmaj7 E
The smell of creatures, Are falling tooth and nail to get out
A E
I see the airplanes, They're pouring from the chest
Dmaj7 E
They fill the air, And burn and bury just like the rest
A E Dmaj7 E x2
A
