Verse 1
If you could[D] see through the banner of the[C] sun
Into eternity's [C]eyes, like a vision reaching [Bm]down to you
Would you turn [D]away?
What if it knew you by your [C]name?
What kind of [C]words would cut through the clutter of the [Bm]whirlwind of these
[D]days?
Pre-Chorus
[G]I tried going against my own soul's[C] warning
And in the [G]end, [Em]something just didn't feel[D] right
Oh, [C]I tried diving, even [D]though the sky was [Em]storming
[Bm]Thunderheads were [C]forming
Chorus
[D]But then I thought I could fly
And when I hit the [C]ground
It [C]made a messed up sound
And it kept on [Bm]rattling through my [D]days
And cutting up my[C] nights
Like a[C] goddamn knife
And it got me [Bm]thinking, no matter how[D] far
I just[D] wanted to get back to where you are

Pre-Chorus
[G]I tried going against my own [C]soul's warning
And in the [G]end, [Em]something just didn't [D]feel right
Oh, I [C]tried running from the[D] memory and the [Em]mourning
But the [Bm]penalty kept on[C] pouring
Chorus
And now I think I know[D] why
'Cause when I hit the [C]ground
It [C]made a messed up sound
And it kept on [Bm]rattling through my [D]days
And cutting up my [C]nights
[C]Like a goddamn knife
And it got me [Bm]thinking, no matter how [D]far
I just wanted to get back to where you are
