Chords

[Intro] D D G D G [Verse 1]
        D             A        G
Did you hear the one about the girl

      G     D      Em     D
Who'd never seen a cactus tree?

       D                  A         G
In her mind she traveled around the world

          G     D       Em  D
But never saw a plane until seventeen

      F#m
White knuckling the armrest

     Em
Only bound for Idaho

F#m
Hoping for the best

              G                    A
But you don't know what you don't know
[Chorus]
        D            A      G
That it only takes a window seat

                     Em         Bm  A G
To see the world was underwater too

      D           A       G
And I only had to lose my way

      A        D   A G
To be found by you

               D   A G
To be found by you
[Verse 2]
   D                        A          G
He went out the window on a New Year's Day

    G             D         Em       D
And shattered his body on a downtown street

            D                 A      G
Yeah, we're all just a broken heart away

     G                D          Em        D
From making a promise that we're forced to keep

      F#m           Em
Doing 90 in a 45 on Ambien and Jack

    F#m
The spinning wheel makes a ticking sound

        G                 A
And sometimes it lands on black
[Chorus]
D                 A       G
Some kids make it home at night

    Em              Bm A G
And some kids never do

  D             A       G
I almost had to lose my mind

      A        D   A G
To be found by you

               D   A G
To be found by you
[Verse 3]
          D                      A         G
There's a picture of you on your grandma's wall

G            D        Em           D
You and your hair are straight and light

             D                     A         G
It's just an awkward moment that's locked in time

          G    D     Em      D
But I can see Elijah in your eyes

F#m                              Em
What I wouldn't give to hold you in those days and still

F#m                          G                  A
What if we had broke up over Jagged Little Pill?
[Chorus]
         D                A        G
We don't curse the broken miles of age

        Em                Bm A G
That it takes to see this through

        D               A          G
Yeah, I probably had to lose those years

      A        D
To be found by you

  D              A      G
I know I had to lose my way

      A        Bm A E
To be found by you
[Bridge]
     F#m                     Bm     A E G
In a moment everything could change

            Bm      A G D A
Anything can  change
[Outro]
       Bm
Let it go

        A
Keep it light

       G
Let it snow

        D       A        Bm
Let the wind blow all night

          A          G
It's only life after all

       D      A     Bm
It's a blink of an eye

                A
It's a long goodbye

                E
It's a long goodbye

           G
It's a long 
Goodbye
