(intro) Gm F

Gm               F
You just wanna strip me
Gm           F
off of who I am
  Gm            F
Divide me into pieces
    Gm             F
and then you can decide
Gm              F
What is it you want a
Gm               F
heart, a mind, a fuck
Gm               F
If it's all the same to you
Gm              F
I'll choose instead

        Gm   F      Gm    F
It's a close race, close race
       Gm           F
You're pushing the buttons now
   Gm          F
as fast as you can
Gm    F     Gm    F
Close race, close race,
    Gm       F       Gm    F
but now it's time to understand
    Gm    Cm   Gm    Cm
and leave you, leave you
Gm       F       Gm   Fsus4 F  Gm
stranded here, a pilot with no plane.

(acapella)
My parashoots will open
while yours will fail
And it doesn't really matter
if your crash helmet is on.

Gm                F     Gm           F
I'll just light another of your cigarettes
        Gm                F
and the ghosts that haunt this house
      Gm          F
will slowly fade away.

       Gm     F    Gm     F
It's a close race, close race
       Gm           F
You're pushing the buttons now
    Gm         F
as fast as you can
Gm     F     Gm    F
Close race, close race,
    Gm       F       Gm     F
but now it's time to understand
     Gm   Cm    Gm   F
and leave you, leave you
Gm       F       Gm   Fsus4 F  Gm
stranded here, a pilot with no plane

Gm      F
A pilot, a pilot
Gm      F
A pilot, a pilot
Gm      F
A pilot, a pilot
Gm
with no plane
