F#m       B                D
   It's okay, Dad, you can go
                       Bm
We're all here and we know

That you're traveling soon
     E                                   D
I've sung you all the songs that I can sing
        F#m                E              D
Mostly George Formby with none of the strings


[Verse 2]
F#m           B                D
   It's funny where we can end up

A life in fields
               Bm
And now you're here

Not a blade of grass
E                            D
You were born in wild Australia
       F#m              E              D
Had to go a long way to be where you are


[Verse 3]
F#m           B                   D
   I did this thing towards the end
                                        Bm
Where I put my head right against your head

And I just held it there
E                               D
Tried to store up every single vein
         F#m          E              D
Fixed in my mind for all tomorrow's days
    A         B        D
For all tomorrow's days

[Verse 4]
F#m               B                   D
    And so to the last night of your stay

Waited up all night
                Bm
And watched you sleep

I've never done that before
        E
And you know what
                            D
It was the best night of my life
      F#m                          B          D
To be close to your dreams for the very first time


[Verse 5]
F#m          B           D
    It was a gentle afternoon

I think Tuesday
              Bm
And there you lay

You were trying to die
   E                                  D
We opened up the window so you could fly
       F#m         E             D
Soar away into the rest of our lives
       A        B                D                 A
I just hope you made it past the hospital car park


[Instrumental]
A   B   D   A (x2)
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh


[Verse 6]
F#m       B             D
   In the middle of the night

Some years back
              Bm
You told your wife

That you could not sleep
    E                       D
You said you were scared to die
             F#m        E             D
But you were curious to see the other side
      A        B*
Well, now you know
D         A
Now you know
