VERSE 1
Fmaj7 
Soon, no hands, on high tip
C 
toe
Fmaj7 
Wave to the dawn, and  
Faug 
off we go
 
This  
Bbmaj7 
terrace wedged on  
C7 
face of rock
Fmaj7 
No ledge  
Bm7 
there his  
B7/F 
way to block  
Fmmaj7 
 
Cm7 
 
Fmmaj7 
 
Cm6 
 
I  
Eb11 
just received your  
Ebmaj7 
letter
 
Still the  
Abmaj7 
anger fresh and deep
 
From the  
A/E 
far-off happy country
 
With its  
Bm 
kindness so un
Gm7 
ique 
 
 
Gm6 
 
Did you  
Eb11 
think I might im
Ebmaj7 
press 
 
you?
 
Did you  
Cm 
think I might have  
Cm7 
changed
 
Em
A/E 
braced all we rejected
 
With our  
Abm7 
glasses 
 
 
Ab7b5 
charged and  
Ab7sus2 
raised 
 
 
Ab7b5

VERSE 2
Fmaj7 
In mid-air, do you think he  
C 
woke
Fmaj7 
Silence feeds this  
Faug 
idle 
 
hope
 
The  
Bbmaj7 
treeline came at  
C7 
jetplane 
 
speed
 
The  
Fmaj7 
good 
 
 
Bn 
earth 
 
it
B7/F 
self revealed  
C7 
 
Now our  
Eb11 
words proceed to  
Ebmaj7 
mock 
 
us
 
Send a  
Abmaj7 
phrase, no time to speak
 
While the  
A/E 
distance and the tarmac
 
Are  
Bm 
never shocked or  
Gm7 
weak
 
They  
Eb11 
know their strength and  
Ebmaj7 
purpose
 
He and I  
Abmaj7 
mocked both of those
 
But we  
A/E 
filled that space with nothing
 
And that’s  
G#7 
why we fail and go
