[Intro]

[Verse]
B F#
Midnight late rides, a car crammed full of laughter
Bmaj7 F#
Who could've guessed Miss Loneliness
 
Found herself away from her disaster
B F#maj7 Bmaj7
A worthwhile endeavor, she's getting much better
F#
At not holding it in
B F#
If words are too hard she can grab a guitar and let the song begin
B F#
Well she's farther than she started, that's for sure
B F#
And who could have predicted an ending like this?
B F#
It's better than she ever wanted, so much more
B F#
With people she's found she'll already miss
B F#
She's been learning, yearning for someone
B F#
To sweep her off her feet or maybe tell her that she's stellar
 
Or that they love her at least
C# C#7
But she'll be content in the end
F#
'Cause after all, a friend is a friend
B F#
And that's still something new, still something sweet
B
Well she's farther than she started, that's for sure
B F#
And who could have predicted an ending like this?
B F#
It's better than she ever wanted, so much more
B F#
With people she's found she'll already miss
B
And the years weren't perfect
A C#m F#
But she's starting to learn that that's all right
B
She needed punctures that hurt
C# F#
To give some worth to the holes that let down the sky
B C#
Lit up with stars, what's mine and what's ours
F#
Doesn't matter when it's all that we've got
B
And if you agree, that this is to be
 
A final send off
Bm C#7 F#
And we're farther than we started, that's for sure
B F#
And I'd never have thought we'd all end up all like this
B C#7 F#
I hope you're better than you ever wanted and much more
C#7 C#
With lights up above
B
A send off with love
 
From the memories you've called your own
B
From the place that you called home
 
From the people that you've known
B
And who could have thought it would end like this?
F#7
With people you already miss
