Chords

[Verse 1]
C                                F
I took a trip away from life all by myself

C                             F
Not my style, but I was being someone else

    Dm                    E7          Am               D7
The day arrived, a lonely walk as I find my seat upon the plane

C                              F
I switched between some dull movies I couldn't stand

C                                F
As we shake, I close my eyes, I grip the chair

 Dm                E7                 Am                 D7
When it lands my head expands and I think it's gonna split in two

Dm         G   C/G
False alarm, I knew
[Chorus]
      C/G              Caug    Am
In my dream you come running to me

           C/Bb
And then fall back into my arms

 F            D7
Wake up

G
Let's eat
[Verse 2]
C                                      F
Crowded trains, cement, and cat's eyes after dark

C                                      F
Who'd have thought a square bagel's where it would start?

    Dm               E7                Am                 D7
I needed this from someone kind, but I never thought it would be you

C                            F
You're my guide, my help, my hand into this town

C                            F
Could you tell I really wanted you around? (Across the pond)

    Dm                  E7                     Am                         D7                     
And did you know how sweet you looked when we sang that song at Winnie's place? (Place)

Dm G                        C/G
    Oh, I was doing it like May
[Chorus]
      C/G              Caug    Am
In my dream you come running to me

           C/Bb
And then fall back into my arms

 F            D7
Wake up

G
Let's eat
[Bridge]
C                                      F
On our last night, we watched a film and had a cry

C                           F
How could I be ready to say goodbye?

    Dm                    E7                   Am             D7
And just like that, you're in my mind, you're back into my arms again

Dm       G         C/G
My across the pond friend
[Chorus]
      C/G              Caug    Am
In my dream you come running to me

           C/Bb
And then fall back into my arms

 F            D7
Wake up

G
Let's eat
