G C

[Verse 1]
         G
It's as good a time as any to speak out what's on my mind
      C
I'm doing alright on paper
                                     Em
Though it seems I'm missing out on life
                          C
There's something I can't find

              G
It's getting rough listening to my heart
                    C
When it's falling apart inside my rib cage
                              Em                       C
While all I see around me is darker than I thought it was

[Pre-Chorus]
Bm                       Em
I'd be on a plane right now
                                      Am
If there was something in my bank account
                                     D/F#
I'd leave it all behind and change my name

[Chorus]
Am                 G
Teach me how to fly
                 Am                            G
Show me what it means to be alive before we part
Am                          G
From the depths of my heart I apologize
Am                      G
If I forgot to say goodbye

[Verse 2]
G
Things will never be exactly how they were
                  C
And though this statement may seem worthless, it’s worth listening to
       Em                                C
If you ever felt like you're the only one

     G
The fact we can't go back may paralyze us
                      C
We still have to realize that sometimes moving forward doesn't mean we leave behind
      Em
What we're carrying in our hearts, all we can do is look at stars
     C
And wonder if there's more to life besides the little time we have here

[Pre-Chorus]
Bm                       Em
I, I'd be on a plane right now
                                      Am
If there was something in my bank account
                                     D/F#
I'd leave it all behind and change my name

[Chorus]
Am                 G
Teach me how to fly
                 Am                            G
Show me what it means to be alive before we part
Am                          G
From the depths of my heart I apologize
Am
If I forgot to say
G
I forgot to say

[Chorus]
C                 G
Teach me how to fly
                  C                          G  D/F#
Show me what it means to be alive before we part
Em        C                 G  D/F# Em D
From the depths of my heart I apologize
C
If I forgot to say
D
I forgot to say

[Chorus]
Am C                G
   Teach me how to fly
                  Am          C                G  D/F#
Show me what it means to be alive before we part
Em        C                 G  D/F# Em D
From the depths of my heart I apologize
C
If I forgot to say
D
I forgot to say
