E                     B
Finally not waking up dreaming of your ghost
    B   
And music is for everyone
    G#m
Why was I always the last to know?
E                          B
No idea how hard it was to get this close
     B
With all this extra baggage
      G#m
And a graft that will not accept the host


[Verse 2]
E                          B
These tattered coat-tails, these torn tennis shoes
     B
I am not smarter than many
      G#m
But I do think that I'm smarter than you
E                         B
Dappled sunlight that the warm air reciprocates
    B
You look up long enough to notice
       G#m
But not long enough to appreciate that


[Chorus 1]
E                G#m
Down here in the flight path
E                G#m            F#
Down here in the flight path we do our best
E                G#m                   F#
Down here in the flight path we do our best
To keep our heads up


[Verse 3]
E                       B
I'll sing loud at water falling on stones
       B
I want well-timed time with friends
    G#m
And well-timed time that I'll spend alone
E                        B
Throw my body into insignificant positions
         B
I'm gonna make more starts
              G#m
Complete more chances and more finishes


[Verse 4]
E                            B
Fly through the world like a whirling dervish in a hurricane
B                           G#m
Take off my clothes and run screaming in the pouring rain
E                                B
Kiss people even when I'm pretty sure its a mistake
    B                                 G#m
And try to find a love that not for a second I'll have to fake


[Chorus 1]
E                G#m
Down here in the flight path
E                G#m            F#
Down here in the flight path we do our best
E                G#m                   F#
Down here in the flight path we do our best
To keep our heads up


[Chorus 2]
B                 E
And the sun, will rise
       F#               E
In the same place every day
            B
It would be arrogant to think
        E
That we could change anything
       F#
Except maybe block it's rays
                    E
But who would wanna do that anyway?


[Chorus 2]
B           E
And I, will rise
     F#                           E
In a different place almost every day
            B
It would be arrogant to think
        E
That we could change anything
              F#
But if you're here to block my rays
                             E
You're gonna have to get the fuck outta my way
 
 
[Chorus 2]  
             B         E
Cause I will shine, on you
                F#                          E
Like it was the only thing I ever wanted to do
       B        E
I will shine on you
                F#
Like it was the only thing that ever mattered
       E
And all I was put on this earth to do
       B        E     F#  E
I will shine on you


[Bridge]
B
One day its gonna spit me out
    E
But its gonna stick my landing
    G#m             F#
You okay with being talked about?
    E                G#m
Its hard to not feel love right now
              F#
Lets wrap our arms around each other
Shake our imperfect bodies around


[Chorus]
E                G#m
Down here in the flight path
E                G#m            F#
Down here in the flight path we do our best
E                G#m                   F#
Down here in the flight path we do our best
To keep our heads up
