verse 1
G
You're setting off, it's time to go, the engine's running
C
My mind's lost, we always knew this day was coming
Em C
And now it's more fright'ning than it's ever gonna be
G
You're miles away, I watch you on a red horizon
C
Your line's heart, I would touch you on a storm sky
Em C
And I will always be listening for your laughter and your tears
Gm D
And as soon as I can hold you once again
G C
I won't let go of you, I swear
G
We live through scars this time
C
But I've made up my mind
D C
We can't leave us behind
G D
Anymore
verse 2
G
Your hands are cold, your lips are turning blue, you're shaking
C
This fragile heart, so heavy in my chest, is breaking
Em C
And in the dark, you try to make a pay phone call to me
G
But you're miles away, your ship breaking up
You're on your own
C
It's hard to take, I need an hour just to say hello
Em C
And I can't make the truth of this work out for you or me
D C
And for all the pennies in your pocket, we barely get a second just to speak
G
We live through scars this time
C
But I've made up my mind
D C
We can't leave us behind
G D
Anymore
G
We'll have to hurt for now
C
But next time, there's no doubt
D
Cuz I can't go without you

Oh oh?
