    C

1.      Two weeks away feels like the whole world should have changed,

                  G

    but I’m home now and things still look the same.

C

    I think I’ll leave it till tomorrow to unpack,

                   G

    try to forget for one more night that I’m back in my flat.

                  C

    On the road where the cars never stop going through the night,

            G

    to a life where I can’t watch the sun set,

                        Am                       Em     - D

    I don’t have time, I don’t have time.

 

Am                                         G                        D

    I’ve still got sand in my shoes and I can’t shake the thought of you.

Am                                     G                          D

    I should get on, forget you, but why would I want to ?

Am                                        G                                    D

    I know we said goodbye, anything else would’ve been confused,

       C - G                                 D

but I.........I want to see you again.

 

     C

2.      Tomorrow’s back to work and down to sanity,

                           G

    should run a bath and then clear up the mess I made before I left here.

C

    Try to remind myself that I was happy here before,

           G

    I knew that I could get on a plane and fly away.

                      C

    From the road where the cars never stop going through the night

            G

    to a life where I can watch the sun set,

                          Am                     Em    - D

    and take my time, take all our time.

 

                                 C - G                                  D

                       D                             Am

     Am

+          Two weeks away, all it takes,

G                                          D

    to change and turn me around, I’ve fallen,

Am                                                      G                   D

    I walked away, and never said that I wanted to see you again.

 

Am                                         G                        D

    I’ve still got sand in my shoes and I can’t shake the thought of you.

Am                                     G                          D

    I should get on, forget you, but why would I want to ?

Am                                        G                                    D
