 A                        D            E 
That time when we were crossin' the Atlantic 
  A           D                  F#m 
The moment now we reached the middle 
 A             D                      E 
You turned to me and said something romantic 
 F#m             E                 A 
"I've won the race and you're the medal" 
 A                D                 E 
And all the ocean liners we were passing 
 A             D           F#m 
Are nothing on a selling whistle 
 A             D                     E 
And as the waves were rolling we were dancing 
 F#m             E               A 
Like we had enough to lose a little 

B                   A  E 
So sure we were contenders 
B                       A 
So strong and willing to fight 

             F#m       E 
But it's a long way down 
             A                D 
when you're far from the ground 
                 F#m     E         A      
And I've been falling most of my life 
                 F#m      E  
And though the sunshine's on 
       A            D 
even after you're gone 
         F#m           E     A  
I feel sorry for the wasted light 

  A                        D            E 
Spill off the port into a crowded mainstream 
A           D                  F#m 
Looking for somewhere to settle 
A             D                      E 
Soon enough we're lost inside the mystery 
F#m             E                 A 
We'll be strangers before night settle 
F#m             E                 A 
With so much to say we've said too little 

B                   A  E 
Back then we were pretenders 
B                      A 
So young and ready to fight 

Oh 
             F#m       E 
But it's a long way down 
             A                D 
when you're far from the ground 
                 F#m     E         A      
And I've been falling most of my life 
                 F#m      E  
And though the sunshine's on 
       A            D 
even after you're gone 
         F#m           E     A  
I feel sorry for the wasted light 

Oh 
             F#m       E 
But it's a long way down 
             A                D 
when you're far from the ground 
                 F#m     E         A      
And I've been falling most of my life 
                 F#m      E  
And though the sunshine's on 
       A            D 
even after you're gone 
         F#m         E             A 
I'm just shaking hands with wasted time 
           F#m             E         A 
I'm still praying you come home one night 


      A           D        E 
So here I am crossing the Atlantic 
 F#m           E               A 
Maybe see you at the middle
