Late For The Sky chords
Jackson Browne *

C G F C  Dm Am G F

    C                  G
The words had all been spoken
                F                    C
And somehow the feeling still wasn t right
Dm              Am     G              F
And still we continued on through the night
C                            G
Tracing our steps from the beginning
           F                 C
Until they vanished into the air
F                        Am        G          F    C
Trying to understand how our lives had led us there

F              Am 
Looking hard into your eyes
          G      F        Em
There was nobody I d ever known
        G        F        Am       G      Am G
Such an empty surprise to feel so alone

        C                  G
Now for me some words come easy
                F                    C
But I know that they don t mean that much
   Dm             Am              G                F
Compared with the things that are said when lovers touch
C                     G
You never knew what I loved in you
             F                 C
I don t know what you loved in me
Dm                       Am            G              F  C
Maybe the picture of somebody you were hoping I might be
 
 F            Am            G      F         Em
Awake again I can t pretend that I know I m alone
    G            F   Am                   G
And close to the end of the feeling we ve known

Dm                   C
How long have I been sleeping
F                    Am        G                F
How long have I been drifting alone through the night
                     C                G  
How long have I been dreaming I could make it right
     C                             F
If I closed my eyes and tried with all my might
          Am
To be the one you need

 F            Am            G      F         Em
Awake again I can t pretend that I know I m alone
    G            F   Am                   G
And close to the end of the feeling we ve known

Dm                   C
How long have I been sleeping
F                    Am        G                F
How long have I been drifting alone through the night
                     C                G
How long have I been running for that morning flight
            C                          F
Through the whispered promises and the changing light
       C                 G
Of the bed where we both lie
             C  Bb C
Late for the sky
