Intro: G C Em D C (2x) 
 
C                    G           
It ain't hard to get lost,  
         D                 Am 
When you forget, where you come from. 
          C                               G      
Turn that dial to the right and push that pedal down. 
              D 
Don't say goodbye, 
             C 
Just for the drive,  
      G       D 
Along for the ride. 
 
 
G                                 D 
It would be real nice just to fly away, 
           Em 
And escape everything. 
           C 
But little bird, 
                              G 
Looks like you've got a broken wing. 
                D                          Em 
Now anything so easy, it might not make you weak. 
       C 
But it sure won't make me believe. 
 
G C Em D C 
 
 
     C                                  G 
It's hell you say and it gets worse you know. 
              D                                       Am 
How many more days am I gonna wake up when there's no place I wanna go? 
     C                                          G 
That sunshine's really gonna kill us all why is everyday so cold? 
       D                      C 
Why is everything, so fucking cold, 
         G      D 
And never melts away.  
 
 
G                                 D 
It would be real nice just to fly away, 
           Em 
And escape everything. 
           C 
But little bird, 
                              G 
Looks like you've got a broken wing. 
                D                          Em 
Now anything so easy, it might not make you weak. 
       C 
But it sure won't make me believe. 
 
 
Am         C           G 
That's the top of your lungs, and the bottom of your heart.   
Am          C           G 
Is that the top of your lungs, Is that the bottom of your heart.  
Am  Bm     C       D          G   D 
Is that as deep as your heart goes?  
 
G (4x) 
 
G                            D   
I understand the things that keep you up, 
                          Em 
And I know that you still feel.  
                              C 
And I know that your heart is hemorrhaging,  
                       G 
And needs some time to heal.  
                            D 
Now the traffic lights there on your street,  
                     Em 
Flash yellow all the time, 
                       C                                      Bm 
And the mirror in your bathroom it looks cracked in the wrong light   
             C 
But walk out through your threshold, 
G                      D                C 
Through your lungs and move on down the stairs. 
Em          D                    C               G 
And let the things you love come back to you in time 
              Am   D 
we'll all get there  
 
 
G                                 D 
It would be real nice just to fly away, 
           Em 
And escape everything. 
           C 
But little bird, 
                              G 
Looks like you've got a broken wing. 
                D                          Em 
Now anything so easy, it might not make you weak. 
       C          D        G 
But it sure won't make me believe.
