How You Learn To Live Alone

           A#                F
First you fall, then you fly
          Gm                  F                  D#
And you believe that you belong up in the sky.
           A#             F
Flap your arms as you run.
        Gm                        F              D#
Every revolution brings you closer to the sun.
    A#                                  F
You fall asleep in motion, in uncharted hemispheres.
                Gm                         F                             D#
And when you wake up with the stars falling down around your ears.
                A#                                         F
And when they hit the ground they're nothing but stone.

Gm                F               D#
That's how you learn to live alone.
Gm                F               A#
That's how you learn to live alone.

        A#               F
Bit by bit, you slip away.
    Gm                  F                 D#
And lose yourself in pieces and the things you don't say.
            A#                           F
You're not here, but you're still there.
    Gm                   F                     D#
The sun goes up, the sun goes down, but you're not sure you care.
    A#                                              F
You live inside the thoughts 'til you don't recognize the truth.
Gm                 F                   D#
People send you pictures and you can't believe it's you.
        A#                                          F
And it's been years since your house has felt like home.

Gm                F              D#
That's how you learn to live alone.
Gm                F               D#
That's how you learn to live alone.

                  A#                      F
You don't feel right, but it's not wrong.
           Gm               F               D#
It's just hard to start again this far along.
          A#                     F
Brick by brick, the letting go
        Gm                F                D#
As you walk away from everything you know.
     A#                            F
When you release resistance and you lean into the wind,
    Gm                  F               D#
The roof begins to crumble and the rain keeps pouring in.
          A#                                      F
And you sit there in the rubble 'til the rubble feels like home.

Gm                F               D#
That's how you learn to live alone.
Gm                F               D#
That's how you learn to live alone.
Gm                F               A#
That's how you learn to live alone.
