Capo 2nd fret
Standard (EADGBE)
I stayed awake just long enough to see you.

Remember Winnipeg, and feeling simpler back then?

I took a week off from my band and flew out,

It was a Saturday, I saw you waiting by the plane.

Chorus
I was always in a way just a long shot;
I was never in the clear of that.
I am lucky just to be a potential,
but I will always make a mess of that.
Of that Of that

I traded symmetry for everything I loved.

I took my feelings out and I had told you I was done.

CHORUS
I know your mistakes,
does that bother you that
I found where they stay?
Can I reach you yet?
I stood up so fast and I let you down.

It was the first time that I heard,
I heard that sound.
It filled my head with the darkest shade of black
and I met you there.
I realized then that I was just a little sad,
and I left you there.

CHORUS A
