[Intro] E B A x4 [Verse]
E             B         A
  I'm pulling wings off insects

   E        B       A
I'm peeling back my sunburnt skin

E              B          A
  I'll wait outside your bedroom

  E             B      A
I,  I hope they let me in

[Verse 2]
E             B       A
  I'm filling your prescriptions

E            B       A
  The orange bottles stare me down

E                  B    A
  They're standing at attention

E         B       A
  An army on your windowsill
[Pre-Chorus]
A                        B
  We're all waiting for good news

E                      A
  Hoping you can come home soon

F#m                     A
  We're all waiting for good news
[Chorus]
E          A
I've been acting like I'm strong

         C#m       B
But the truth is, I've been losing ground

     F#m          A
To a hospital too crowded,

  E              B
A summer winding down

  F#m           A                B
I hadn't seen a heartbreak until now

  F#m           A                E
I hadn't felt a heartbreak until now
[Instrumental] (E) B A E B A [Verse 3]
E           B       A
  I grew up on your back porch

   E              B            A
And I watched the storms light up the clouds

E                B       A
  They hung like paper lanterns

E              B          A
  To guide the way back toward your house
[Pre-Chorus]
A                       B
  I've been putting off long flights

E                       A
  Hoping that you'll be alright

F#m                        A
  And I'll be there in the meantime
[Chorus]
E          A
I've been acting like I'm strong

         C#m       B
But the truth is, I've been losing ground

     F#m          A
To a hospital too crowded,

  E              B
A summer winding down

  F#m           A                B
I hadn't seen a heartbreak until now

  F#m           A                E
I hadn't felt a heartbreak until now
[Bridge]
E              A
  If I'm in an airport

                E
And you're in a hospital bed

            B                          E
Well, then, what kind of man does that make me?

             A
If I'm in an airport

                E
And you're in a hospital bed

            B                          E
Well, then, what kind of man does that make me?

             A
If I'm in an airport

             E
If I'm in an airport

B                            E
  What kind of man does that make me?

A                          
  What kind of man does that make me?
[Chorus]
E          A
I've been acting like I'm strong

        C#m       B
But the truth is, I've been losing ground

     F#m          A
To a hospital too crowded,

  E              B
A summer winding down

  F#m           A                B
I hadn't seen a heartbreak until now

  F#m           A                E
I hadn't felt a heartbreak until now
[Outro]
A                              B
Hadn't felt a heartbreak until now

A
Hadn't felt a heartbreak

       F#m            A
Oh the hospital's too crowded

    E                B
The summer's winding down

F#m              A                B
I haven't seen a heartbreak until now

F#m                   A                E
Well I haven't felt a heartbreak until now
