verse 1 
G                                                Am 
I will always remember our hands on the table and I 
   C/G                        G 
I could not unlock from your stare 
                                                   Am 
And though I've tried to untie from your anchor I can't 
C/G                     G 
I am no good at giving up 

verse 2 
        Am                   C/G              G 
I am directing our movie, our play in my mind 
   Am                 C/G                   G 
A moment suspended in time that I keep on rewind 
                                                                  Am 
And the ink, it is bleeding through pages where I wrote down your name 
   C/G                       G 
And carefully planned our escape 

verse 3 
                                                  Am 
I would pass you a key and pay off the judges to free you 
   C/G                           G 
If that's what it takes then why wait? 
     Am                  C/G        G 
I am one cloud shy in your neon sky 
 
F        Am           G 
Do not go from my road 
F        Am           G 
Do not go from my road 

F Am 

verse 4 
     G                                               Am 
I was crippled and blurry the day I walked into your frame 
    C/G                    G 
I'm so focused now on your name 
                                                        Am 
And my pages were fading from the days of exchanging my tune 
   C/G                       G 
On trains that I took home to you 
         Am             C              G 
When the signal broke I spoke to you on paper 
         Am                           C/G           G 
From the parking lots to our bed where you are not now 

F        Am           G 
Do not go from my road 
F        Am           G 
Do not go from my road 

Outro 
F      Am        G 
Soon my moon will fall 
F      Am    G 
Soon my moon 
F      Am        G 
Soon my moon will fall 
F Am G
