    D - A - Bm - Em  (2x)
 
            G                                Bm
1. I ll meet you in the air, I ll meet you with the fare
     G                                                                           D                 - Bm
    on the underground, wherever you be found I ll meet you there.
            G                             Bm
    I ll meet you in time, I ll meet you, cruel or kind,
             G
    the heart weighs a ton if you need someone
                          D                                 - Bm                             A   ~
    and they re standing on the platform,        but it's the other side.
 
            G                                Bm
2. I ll meet you in the air, I ll meet you when you re not there,
              G                                            D                    - Bm
    the shopping list of all you missed, let's go there.
            G                                      Bm
    I ll meet you in the surreal, I ll meet you in the joy you steal,
       G
    stones and sticks you re kicking the pricks,
             D                      Bm          A
    and still I m learning how to kneel, or what not to feel.
 
D                                          A
    And when we reach the Circle line,
Bm                                    Em
    and when we stop the clocks, stopping time,
D                                  A
    to wake up an unforgiving son,
Bm                                   Em
    wake in the dream that overcomes,
       D                   A                        Em - G
in a life we get a taste of it all, in a life.
 
            G                                Bm
3. I ll meet you in the air, I ll meet you when you don t care,
               G                                                                  D                   - Bm
    in the empty space that occupies your place, I ll meet you there.
          G                               Bm
    A penny on the track, we ran and get it back,
             G
    the driver on the train, whose soul's in so much pain,
              D                    - Bm                       A
    says love will flatten          but it won t crack, the coin won t crack.
 
D                                          A
    And when we make our bed out of war,
Bm                                Em
     deafen our children with its roar.
D                                  A
    Repeat, rewind, replay once more,
Bm                          Em
    never unsee the sights they saw
       D                A
in a life we get caught in the traffic,
      Bm                   Em
in a life we make misery from magic,
       D                        A                                  Bm       Em
in a life we miss the comic in the tragic, in a life, in a life.
 
                D
+  I feel alone, I need it known,
                      A
    I never achieved anything on my own.
               Bm
    I feel alone, I need it known,
                 Em
    I only received from being shown.
               D
    I feel alone, I need it known,
                      A
    I never achieved anything on my own,
                       Bm
    a skipping stone I was thrown,
                      Em
    the ocean floor is not my home.
             D                      A
    In a life we catch a glimpse of someone else,
              Bm                     Em                     - D
    in your eyes caught a glance of myself.
