Verse
A           E         D
I'm pulling wings off insects
I'm peeling back my sunburnt skin
I'll wait outside your bedroom
I hope they let me in

Verse 2
A           E         D
I'm filling your prescriptions
The orange bottles stare me down
They're standing at attention
An army on your windowsill

Pre-Chorus
D                       E
We're all waiting for good news
A                     D
Hoping you can come home soon
F#m                   D
We're all waiting for good news

Chorus
A          D
I've been acting like I'm strong
         F#m       E
But the truth is, I've been losing ground
F#m             D
To a hospital too crowded,
A               E
A summer winding down
F#m             D                E
I hadn't seen a heartbreak until now
F#m             D                A
I hadn't felt a heartbreak until now

Verse 3
A      E          D
I grew up on your back porch
And I watched the storms light up the clouds
They hung like paper lanterns
To guide the way back toward your house

Pre-Chorus
D                     E
I've been putting off long flights
A                     D
Hoping that you'll be all right
F#m                    D
And I'll be there in the meantime

Chorus
A          D
I've been acting like I'm strong
         F#m       E
But the truth is, I've been losing ground
F#m             D
To a hospital too crowded,
A               E
A summer winding down
F#m             D                E
I hadn't seen a heartbreak until now

I hadn't felt a heartbreak until now

If I'm in an airport

If I'm in an airport
