[Intro] Em D/F# G Am G D x2 [Verse]
Em       D/F#  G
When the time comes 

Am                 G   D
That you're no longer there 

Em           D/F#  G
Fall down to my knees 

Am        G    D
Begin my nightmare 

      Em                 D/F# G
Words spill from my drunken mouth

   Am                 G   D 
I just can't keep'em all in 

      Em              D/F# G
I keep up with the racing rats

    Am           D   Em
And do my best to win

Slow down little one

You can't keep running away 

    Em           D/F#   G
You mustn't go outside yet 

     Am            G    D
It's not your time to play 

Em              D/F#         G
Standing at the edge of your town

          Am         G    D
With the skyline in your eyes

Em        D/F#  G
Reaching up to god

    Am             D     Em    Bm
The sun says its goodbyes
[Chorus]
      C             G             Em    Bm
If a plane were to fall from the sky 

          C             G
How big a hole would it leave 

       D                   
In the surface of the earth
[Instrumental] Em D/F# G Am G D x2 [Verse 3]
Em              D/F#  G
Let's pretend we never met 

Am                    G    D
Let's pretend we're on our own

Em              D/F#  G 
We'll live different lives 

Am        G       D
Until our covers blown 

          Em        D/F#  G
I push my hand up to the sky 

          Am         G  D
Shade my eyes from the sun 

       Em             D/F#  G
As the dust settles around me 

         Am             D Em    Bm
Suddenly nightime has begun 
[Chorus]
     C             G             Em    Bm
If a plane were to fall from the sky 

          C             G
How big a hole would it leave 

       D
In the surface of the earth 

       D
The surface of the earth 
[Verse 4]
Em     C
Come on now 

    G             D
You knew you were lost

        Em     C     G D
But you carried on anyway

   Em     C
Oh come on now

    G               D
You knew you had no time

But you let the day drift away

How big a hole would it leave 

     C             G             Em   Bm
If a plane were to fall from the sky 

          C             G
How big a hole would it make 

       D
In the surface of the earth  The surface of the earth

                       Em
The surface of the earth
