4    -4     -4  -4  -4 4 -4  4     5
I locked myself in a hotel room
    4    -4  -4  -4    -4    -4    5     -4   4     4
Then waited all night for the walls to move
  4     -4      -4     -4    -4  4  -4  4     5
I've loved some girls that I barely knew
  4     -4       -4       -4,     -4    5   -4      4     4
I've made some friends, and I've lost some too
      -4     -4  -4, -4   4   -4  4   5
Crashed my car, I was seventeen
 4     -4  -4 -4  -4    -4   -4  5    -4    4  4
My mother in the seat riding next to me
   4      6      6       6         6    6   6  -4   -4  5
The things I've learned from a broken mirror
   4   4   -4    -4      -4       -4   5    -4       4      4
How a face can change when a heart knows fear
  4   -4   4     -4      4    -4      4      5,     4   -4   -4   -4  4   4
For all the things my eyes have seen, the best by far is you

(Chorus)
4 4     6    6,     6  -6     5      5
If I could fly, then I would know
    4     4     -4     5     -4    4   -4 5    -4      4     6  5
What life looks like from up above and down below
 4     4     6     6,    6    -6     5    5
I'd keep you safe, I'd keep you dry
   4     4   -4  5,  -4 4 -4,   5   -4   4 -4  4
Don't be afraid, Cecilia, I'm the satellite
   3      4      -4   4
And you're the sky

   -6   6 5  6   5  -4  -4  4 5
Woah oh  oh oh oh oh ohh
   -6   6 5  6   5  -4  -4  4 4
Woah oh  oh oh oh oh ohh
   -6   6 5  6   5  -4  -4  4 5
Woah oh  oh oh oh oh ohh
   4     4   -4  5,  -4 4 -4,   5   -4   4 -4  4
Don't be afraid, Cecilia, I'm the satellite
