4/4| C C C | G | C Csus4 | G |
C Csus4 I'm a billion ages past you C Csus4 A million years behind you too Bb G A thousand miles up in the air Bb G G6 G7 A trillion times I've seen you there C Csus4 Your hair is golden, mine is grey C Csus4 You walk on grass, it turns to hay Bb G Your blood is blue and your eyes are red Bb G G6 G7 My body strains, but the nerves are dead
[Chorus 1]
C Bb I can't reach you, I've strained my eyes C Bb I can't reach you, I've split my sides C G/B / Am7 G6 / I can't reach, tryin' to get on you Fadd9 C/E / Gsus4 F/D C See, feel or hear from you
| C | G | C | G |
The distances grow greater now
You drink champagne and past me plough
You fly your plane right over my head
You're so alive and I'm nearly dead
[Chorus 2]
C Bb I can't reach you, with arms outstretched C Bb I can't reach you, I crane my neck C G/B / Am7 G6 / I can't reach, tryin' to get on you Fadd9 C/E / Gsus4 F/D / C See, feel or hear from you
| C | G | C | G |
[Bridge]
Am G (C/G) (G) Once I caught a glimpse of your unguarded, untouched heart Am G C/G G Our fingertips touched and then my mind tore us apart
[Repeat chorus 2]
