Tom: Em
G C
[Verse 1]
G
It's as good a time as any to speak out what's on my mind
C
I'm doing alright on paper
Em
Though it seems I'm missing out on life
C
There's something I can't find
G
It's getting rough listening to my heart
C
When it's falling apart inside my rib cage
Em C
While all I see around me is darker than I thought it was
[Pre-Chorus]
Bm Em
I'd be on a plane right now
Am
If there was something in my bank account
D/F#
I'd leave it all behind and change my name
[Chorus]
Am G
Teach me how to fly
Am G
Show me what it means to be alive before we part
Am G
From the depths of my heart I apologize
Am G
If I forgot to say goodbye
[Verse 2]
G
Things will never be exactly how they were
C
And though this statement may seem worthless, it’s worth listening to
Em C
If you ever felt like you're the only one
G
The fact we can't go back may paralyze us
C
We still have to realize that sometimes moving forward doesn't mean we leave behind
Em
What we're carrying in our hearts, all we can do is look at stars
C
And wonder if there's more to life besides the little time we have here
[Pre-Chorus]
Bm Em
I, I'd be on a plane right now
Am
If there was something in my bank account
D/F#
I'd leave it all behind and change my name
[Chorus]
Am G
Teach me how to fly
Am G
Show me what it means to be alive before we part
Am G
From the depths of my heart I apologize
Am
If I forgot to say
G
I forgot to say
[Bridge]

[Chorus]
C G
Teach me how to fly
C G D/F#
Show me what it means to be alive before we part
Em C G D/F# Em D
From the depths of my heart I apologize
C
If I forgot to say
D
I forgot to say
[Chorus]
Am C G
Teach me how to fly
Am C G D/F#
Show me what it means to be alive before we part
Em C G D/F# Em D
From the depths of my heart I apologize
C
If I forgot to say
D
I forgot to say
