Tom: Am
C
I saw your shoes behind the line
E
I’ve seen your face a hundred times
F
But now only in my mind
Fm
The rest of you is left behind
C
You lay there passed out on the couch
E
Words falling from your mouth
F
Maybe you like to drink too much
Fm
I could see you losing touch
[Chorus]
C E7
Please don’t float too high
F
The sun will burn your wings
Fm
You are everything
C E
Please don't run away
E7 F
The headlights they will catch you
Fm
Your mother she will miss you
[Verse 2]
C
So we all waited in a room
E
Flipped a switch and watched the news
F
Waiting for a sign of you
Fm
Breathing was impossible to do
C
So we all waited for the call
E
And wondered if you’re there at all
F
But no one’s lips knew what to say
Fm F
Hoping that you won’t fly away
[Chorus]
C E7
Please don’t float too high
F
The sun will burn your wings
Fm
You are everything
C E
Please don't run away
E7 F
The headlights they will catch you
Fm
Your mother she will miss you
(play 1 strum down for each chord in the last chorus)
[Chorus]
C E7
Please don’t float too high
F
The sun will burn your wings
Fm
You are everything
C E
Please don't run away
E7 F
The headlights they will catch you
Fm
Your mother she will miss you
