Introdução:
D D2 G
Another morning that you're stirring at the crack of dawn
D D2 G
I lie there doing nothing, flinching when the light comes on
D D2
You're checking things against a list to make sure nothing has been missed
G
Your passport and your boarding pass
G-
D D2 G
Chorus
D Bm G D G
And I'm puffy eyed and I'm not much use
A D G A D
But you manage to be patient as you pass my shoes
D D2 G
Verse
D D2 G
Another morning that we're rushing out into the car
D D2 G
The day will come when we leave in enough time but it's not so far
D D2
So in the midst of all of this, I forget to steal a kiss
G
To hold your hand and tell you you don't understand how you'll be missed
D D2 G
Chorus
D Bm G D G
So I hang around til you've checked your bags
D G D
You won't get rid of me til security
D G D
And you hold your dreams with mine
A G D
And I hold yours too because
A Bm
I will take my chances
G D
On your wood shoe dances
Bm D G
Cos nothing else makes sense the way this does
A Bm
It's the life we have chosen
G D
It's the life that has chosen us
D D2 G
Verse
D D2 G
So take care darling then and let me know you land okay
D D2 G
I'll head back home and watch my phone until I know you got there safe
D
And then we'll steal a moment now and then
D2
To hear each other's voice again
G
Adding up the hours ahead to talk before we go to bed
D Bm G A D
And it's the same old words for the same old love
Bm G D
That never quite feel big enough
D G D
And we'll do the best we can
A G D
With faces on a screen
A Bm
But it's more gigantic
G D
Than the whole Atlantic
Bm D G
And any other ocean in beween
A Bm
Not the love I have chosen
G D
But the love that has chosen me
D D2 G
So I'll keep the homefires burning darling waiting for your return
D D2 G
And soon enough the time will come to pack my bags and take my turn
D D2
But no amount of sky any water stands between the bricks and mortar
G
Where my true love's flesh and bones, that will always be my home
D G D
And we'll make our own mistakes
A G D
Just like everyone does
A Bm
You can take your chances,
G D
I don't have the answers
Bm D G
But we'll work it out as we go on because
A Bm
It's the love we have chosen,
G D
it's the love that has chosen us
D G
So just let me know when you land okay
