Intro: F  A  Bb  C  F

Verse 1:
F                                     A
The thrill here is quicker than you'd think
                                 Bb
The way some jet-lagged bar kept pouring the wine
                           F                    C
From over their heads then sit back down again
F                               A
Four times is once too much for luck
                              Bb
And that's how many times the clock struck
F                            C
I wandered home, saying your name

Interlude: D   F   D

Verse 2:

F                                            A
The arches here were built 'cause they don't fall
                                Bb
The cathedrals to make you feel small
          F               C
You might find your small soul
F                               A
Leave the preaching to the president

The crowd cheers, his eyes get wet
    Bb
I'm full as it is, I'm full as it is
F                C
So don't feed me more

Chorus 1:

A                   Bb                   F
You'll be having my head, big as a birthday
       A             Bb                F      C
'Cause I left all my doubts on the airplane
D                                F         C
I didn't know, I didn't know I'm not in control
D                             F
I didn't know, I'm not invincible

Instrumental: F  A  Bb  C  F

Verse 3:
F                                       A
And maybe some things are better left unsaid
                                Bb                      F        C
But if you wanted to test that, well, yeah, I guess, I could've said
F                                      A
But there were nights in bars that I recall
                                   Bb
Your breath was courage laced with alcohol
           F       C
You leaned in, you said,

Chorus 2:
A                    Bb            F
"Make music with the chatter in here,
A                   Bb             F   C
And whisper all the notes in my ears."
D                                F            C
I didn't know, I didn't know the weight of my tongue
D
I didn't know, I didn't know what I'd done

Verse 4:
F                                     A
The lights here are softer than you'd think
                            Bb
The dim lit peacocks in the trees,
                                    F            C
They're hiding their eyes and their beauty, like me
F                         A
But if my eyes were on my back
                           Bb
I know what I'd be looking at
                       F         C
Through every shade of brown and green

Outro:
D                               F           C
I didn't know, I didn't know it was nothing new
D                                   F
I didn't know, I didn't know it was you
