Being [A] up before the sun and now I'm tired before I even [D] begin
[Em] Now you're flying
[A] I got so [D] much work in [Bm] front of [E] me
We in the [A] flight

I [D] can see

And [A]
when the bar is open then you'll often find it warm in [D] your [A] seat

We in the flight

[E] Now you're flying
[F#] Right now I got no [Bm] time for [E] yesterday
We in the flight
[F#] Yesterday's [Bm] a thousand [F#] miles [A] away
A thousand miles away
A thousand [D] miles [A] away
A thousand [D] miles [E] away
[F#] Was that [Bm] that you were [E] trying to say?
