Late for the Sky Jackson Browne
Jackson Browne: Late for the sky
[C]Of the words that all've been [G]spoken,
somehow the [F]feeling still wasn't [C]right,
[F]and still we [Am]continued [G]on through the [F]night.[C]
Tracing our steps from the be[G]ginning,
till they [F]vanished into the [C]air.
[F]Trying to understand how [Am]our live [G]had let us [F]fail.[C]
[F]Looking hard [Am]into your eyes, there was [G]nobody [F]I'd ever [G]known.
Such an empty [F]surprise [Am]to feel so [G]alone.
Now for [C]me, some words come [G]easy
but I know that [F]they don't mean that [C]much,
[F]compared with the [Am]things that they say [G]when lovers [C]touch.
[C]You'll never knew what I [G]loved in you,
I don't know [F]what you loved in [C]me.
[F]Maybe the picture of some[Am]body you will [G]hope that I might [F]be.[C]
[F]Awake again, I [Am]can't pretend and I [G]know I am [C]al[G]one.
And [F]close to the [Am]end of the feeling we've [G]kn[C]ow[G]n.
[F]How long have I been [C]sleeping?
[F]How long have I been [Am]drifting al[G]one through the [C]night?
[F]How long have I been [Am]dreaming I
[G]could make it right if I [C]close my eyes
and try [F]with all my might to be the [Am]one you need ...
[F]Awake again, I [Am]can't pretend and I [G]know I am [C]al[G]one.
And [F]close to the [Am]end of the feeling we've [G]kn[C]ow[G]n.
[F]How long have I been [C]sleeping?
[F]How long have I been [Am]drifting al[G]one through the [C]night?
[F]How long have I been [Am]running for
[G]that morning flight through the whispering [C]promises
in the [F]changing light of the [C]bed where we both [G]lie,
late for the [C]sky.
