C          Em       F         G
I woke up early to baby blue eyes from the
  C    Em   F      G
fire whoah  whoah
C             Em                    F
And when the sun comes through and lights
             G         C
you like the angel you are
Em   F      G
whoa whoa

Dm                G           Dm
I know I do you wrong when I’m with you
           G
I’ve been gone

With every season change it looks the same
November to June
And on these empty streets
I skip a beat the flowers don’t bloom

I can't believe I missed your birthday again
And I want to come back
But I just don't know when, now

Chorus:
    C Am  F  G
And I’m  so lonely
C        Am         F G
Your not here with me
        C       Am    F         G          C Am F G
That’s why I’m gonna be on the next plane home

The road that never ends
Round the bend I see you smile
I'd swim across the sea
To be with you for awhile

'Cause I made a life of being gone
Now the way that I feel is that I just don't
belong here
And I'm so lonely

Chorus:
You're not here with me
That's why I'm gonna be on the next plane home
And you're, you're the only place I wanna see
That’s why I'm gonna be on the next plane home

A#
Stand around try to make every moment
    Am     Dm    Am      Dm
And be somebody yeah anybody
A#
It seems the whole world is taking me over
   G
I need somebody to help me get back to

    Am  Am7 F      Am7    Dm       G    Am
And I’ve    always been a million miles away
      F         G       C           G/B        Am
But things are gonna change I just wanna come home

And you're, you're the only place I wanna see
That's why I'm gonna be on the next plane home

Yeah I'm taking the next plane home
Now I'm getting the next plane home
Now I'm taking the next plane home
