Jackson Browne – Late For The Sky (Guitar)

    C                  G
The words had all been spoken

                F                    C/E
And somehow the feeling still wasn't right

Dm              Am     G              F
And still we continued on through the night

C                            G
Tracing our steps from the beginning

           F                 C/E
Until they vanished into the air

F                        Am        G          F    C
Trying to understand how our lives had led us there

F              Am
Looking hard into your eyes

          G      F        Em
There was nobody I'd ever known

        G        F   Am   F         G  G/A   G/B
Such an empty surprise to feel so alone

        C                  G
Now for me some words come easy

                F                    C/E
But I know that they don't mean that much

   Dm             Am              G                F
Compared with the things that are said when lovers touch

C                     G
You never knew what I loved in you

             F                 C/E
I'don't know what you loved in me

Dm                       Am            G              F  C
Maybe the picture of somebody you were hoping I might be

 F            Am            G      F         Em
Awake again I can't pretend that I know I'm alone

    G            F   Am                   G
And close to the end of the feeling we've known

Dm                   C
How long have I been sleeping?

F                    Am        G                F
How long have I been drifting alone through the night?

                     C                G
How long have I been dreaming I could make it right?

     C/G                           F
If I closed my eyes and tried with all my might

          Am
To be the one you need

 F            Am            G      F         Em
Awake again I can't pretend that I know I'm alone

    G            F   Am      F            G  G/A   G/B
And close to the end of the feeling we've known

F                   C/E
How long have I been sleeping?

Dm                    Am        G                F
How long have I been drifting alone through the night?

                     C                G
How long have I been running for that morning flight?

            C/G                        F
Through the whispered promises and the changing light

       C                 G
Of the bed where we both lie

             C  C Bb/C**
Late for the sky
