Tuned a half step down. All chords relative to standard tuning.
[Intro]
G#m E (x2)
[Verse]
G#m
Tonight I set out
E
On a journey from behind your ears and your neck down
F#
Along the sharp curves of your spine.
G#m
I hear you whispering
E
Like a seashell that is trying to keep the ocean in,
F#
Tucked in the sand dunes of your skin.
[Chorus]
G#m B E C#m G#m
But no matter how hard that we beg, the miles take you away,
B E C#m
And there's nothing that we can say.
G#m B E C#m G#m
You're leaving me and I realize this, hell has an address
B C#m G#m
And I'm standing on it's doorstep.
[Interlude]
G#m E (x2)
[Verse]
G#m
And later on I ignore the calls
E
While I watch the shapes our shadows take dancing on the walls.
G#m E
I'm here with you, and you are here with me, and nothing can go wrong,
E
At least until the morning comes.
G#m
But I can almost see the sunlight through the window,
E F#
And I can almost taste the warm tears in your eyes,
G#m
So I wrap my arms around your waist and pull you close to say,
E F#
"Endlessly, you belong with me."
[Chorus]
G#m B E C#m G#m
But no matter how hard that we beg, the miles take you away,
B E C#m
And there's nothing that we can say.
G#m B E C#m G#m
You're leaving me and I realize this, hell has an address
B C#m G#m
And I'm standing on it's doorstep.
[Interlude]
G#m E (x8)
[Bridge]
E F# G#m
(Whoa) there's no pain I won't endure
C#m
To keep my fingers locked in yours;
E
No distance I won't go. Goodbye Sky Harbor. Over, out, alone.
[Outro]
E F# G#m C#m E G#m
