[C] [Fm] [Cm]
I remember how [Eb] it was when we were flying high [Fm] in love.
[Ab] We were so [Gm] proud.
[C] It's like we're sharing a [Eb] window seat
and [Gm] we could see [F] far above [Fm] all of the [Gm] [Cm] clouds.
And with storms [Bb] going on, lovers fighting [Fm] at home,
[Ab] down on [Gm] the [Cm] ground.
But because [Bb] we're everywhere, we could not see [Fm] the rain
or hear the [Ab] sound.
[C] All of [Bb] a sudden, [Ab] there was something going [Gm] wrong.
I lost my function.
[Ab] And I put my seat belt [G] back on.
To show me something.
[Gm] Even if it's just [F] goodbye.
Grab the parachute.
Let's jump [Db] before we die.
Because baby, [Ab] I wish there was a way to find out
[B] what we [Bb] did wrong that [Gm] made our love [Cm] not [Db] last.
I wish there was [Eb] a way to figure [G] out just what it was
that [Cm] made our love like that.
I wish there was [Eb] a way to die.
I said I wish I [G] wish.
We broke our hearts [Cm] and we heard a glow.
[Fm] Oh, I [Cm] wish love came with [Bb] a black box.
A black box.
[Ab] I remember when [Eb] you and I would [Gm] always [Ab] slip away.
While the [Cm] universe was sleeping,
and you and I were breathing.
We never put our [Gm] seat belts on.
We never played [F] it safe.
Never mind the [Fm] dark and light.
It [Gm] only made [Cm] us brave.
And nothing [Bb] else matters.
We [Ab] only cared about [D] getting [Ab] by.
[Cm] We were on top of [Bb] the world the way we [D] frequently fly.
[Ab] You and I.
[Gm] [E] [Ab] There was something going wrong.
[Gm] I love my father.
[Eb] I had to put my seat belt [G] back on.
He told me something.
[Eb] Even if it's [Fm] just [F] goodbye.
Got the power to shoot.
Let's jump before [Db] we die.
[Ab] Because baby, I wish there was a way to [Eb] find out
[B] what we [Bb] did wrong that [Gm] made [Cm] our love not [Db] last.
I wish there was [Eb] a way to figure [G] out just what it was
that [Cm] made our love like that.
I wish there was [Eb] a way [G] to take what broke our hearts
and [Cm] what hurt us the most.
[Fm] I [Cm] wish there was [Bb] a way to take [Fm] what broke our hearts
and what hurt us the most.
I would search for all of the rubble
just to find the medicine trouble.
[Cm] I would search for all of the rubble.
Through all of [Bb] the grief so [Cm] I can finally see
what made you stop [Gm] loving me.
[Db] Exactly what it was that made us fall in love.
[D] So I can make you [C] fall in love [G] with me.
[Ab] I wish there was a way to find out
[G] what we [Bb] did wrong that [Gm] made our [Cm] [Db] love not last.
I wish there was [Eb] a way to figure [G] out
just what it was [Cm] that made our love like that.
[Ab] I wish there was [Eb] a way to take what broke our hearts
[G] and [Cm] what hurt us the [Fm] most.
I [Cm] wish that I came with [Bb] the blindfold.
I'm going to find out.
[C] I remember how it [Bb] was when we were [Eb] flying high [Fm] in love.
[Ab]
