Lyrics

[Intro]
| Bb | - | - | - |

[Verse 1]
          Bb              Cm        Bb
Just when everything's in order and good,
Bb     Gm    Eb
things fall apart
          Bb               Cm          Eb
Just when life should be resolving I'm back at the
  Bb
beginning,
             Gm          Eb
And it comes back to the heart

[Pre-Chorus]
    Cm
I'm not really sad
        Eb           Bb
I'm not running, I'm looking
      Cm   Gm       Cm    Gm       Cm Gm       Eb
Did I tell you I've saved all your letters and cards

[Chorus]
             Bb                     Cm          Eb
There's just nothing left for me to do here but unhook the
F
stars
             Bb                     Cm          Eb
There's just nothing left for me to do here but unhook the
Bb
stars

[Verse 2]
Bb         Bb            Cm                  Bb
  Do you remember when I told you all that I could and it
Bb     Gm       Eb
seemed like too much
      Bb          Cm          Eb          Bb
I was living your life hoping you'd never fall
             Gm      Eb
If I held on tight enough

[Pre-Chorus]
    Cm                     Eb            Bb
And letting go now is like a passport to anywhere
Cm   Gm         Cm    Gm    Cm   Gm    Eb
With time on my hands I can make a new start

[Chorus]
       Bb             Cm        Eb             F
I just didn't want to stay here and unhook the stars
       Bb             Cm        Eb             Bb
I just didn't want to stay here and unhook the stars

[Interlude]
Bb      Cm        Dm      Eb         F
  Don't worry for me it's just I'm inspired
    Cm         Dm         Eb                 F
Waiting in the wings made me drunk with possibility
Cm           Dm
It rivals my memories
Cm Dm Eb F
Cm Dm Eb F
Cm

[Chorus]
F       Bb             Cm        Eb             F
 I just didn't want to stay here and unhook the stars
       Bb             Cm        Eb             Bb
I just didn't want to stay here and unhook the stars

[Verse 3]
Bb              Cm        Bb
Everything's in order and good,
Bb     Gm    Eb
things fall apart
          Bb               Cm          Eb
Just when life should be resolving I'm back at the
  Bb
beginning,
             Gm          Eb
And it comes back to the heart

[Pre-Chorus]
    Cm
I'm not really sad
        Eb           Bb
I'm not running, I'm looking
      Cm   Gm       Cm    Gm       Cm Gm       Eb
Did I tell you I've saved all your letters and cards

[Chorus]
             Bb                     Cm          Eb
There's just nothing left for me to do here but unhook the
F
stars
             Bb                     Cm          Eb
There's just nothing left for me to do here but unhook the
Bb
stars
Bb Cm Eb F
Bb             Cm        Eb             Bb
Didn't want to stay here and unhook the stars
Bb             Cm        Eb             F
Didn't want to stay here and unhook the stars
       Bb      Cm        Eb             Bb
Didn't want to stay here and unhook the stars
