G#
Hours pass, and she still counts the minutes
D#
That I am not there
G#
I swear I didn't mean for it to feel like this
D#
Like every inch of me is bruised, bruised.
G#
Don't fly fast. Oh, pilot can you help me
D#
Can you make this last? This plane is all I got
G#
So keep it steady now, cos every inch you see is
D# D#/D
Bruised
Verse:
I lace my Chucks I walk the aisle,
I take my pills, the babies cry.
All I hear
Is what's playing through the in-flight radio
Now every word of every song
I've ever heard that made me want to stay
Is what's playing through the in-flight radio
And I, I am finally waking up.
Chorus
Bridge:
D# Gm
So read your books but stay out late
Cm
Some nights, some nights.
D# Gm Cm
And don't think that you can't stop by the bar.
D# Gm Cm
You haven't shown your face here since the bad news.
D# Gm
I'm here til close, with fingers crossed,
G# A#
Each night cos your place isn't far.
G# D#
And hours pass, and hours pass.
G#
Yeah, Yeah
Chorus
