Capo 2nd Fret
Intro: G C9 G C9
G D G
G C9 G
I found myself down at the Airways Motel
D
Drunk and half hearted again
G C9 G
Alone with a woman who's not gonna tell
D G
What I've been doin' and where I have been
C9 G
It seems Sunday mornings, they come without warning
D
I'm never ready for the way that I feel
G C9 G
So sick of lying, I know that I'm dying
D G
From all of these secrets that I can't reveal
[Refrão] C G
But I can still sing along with the choir
D G
While I fight through my own private hell
C G C
Caught between heaven and all my desire
G D G
For the girl at the Airways Motel
When I promised forever the night that I married
I meant every word that I said
But a couple years later I stand here a liar
Next to the woman I know I've misled
Looking around at this whole congregation
Too tired to listen, I play with my ring
I wonder who all of us think that we're fooling
Hiding from someone who sees everything
Chorus
Somewhere between heaven and all my desire
For the girl at the Airways Motel
