G#                   D#
I remember wasting time
G#                         D#
Watching as the planes fly by
G#
I remember hearing the
D#      G#                    D#
engines echoing through the sky

Fm
And they used to
G#
say That someday
C#
you'll forget it
You won't hear them
Fm                G#
And they used to say
               C#
That time goes by
              D#
That nothing changes

Chorus:
G#       D#
I won't miss my
 C#
flight again
     G#
I'm not where
D#  C#
I belong
    G#      D#
So give me just
     C#
one chance
           Fm
And one by one I'll
 D#        C#
prove you wrong
       Fm
One by one I'll
 D#        G#   D#  Fm D# C# C#m
prove you wrong

I remember every night
Sitting by the runway side
I remember waiting for a reason to say goodbye

And they used to say
That someday you'll forget it
You won't hear them
And they used to say
The day goes by, but you can't change it

Chorus:
I won't miss my flight again
I'm not where I belong
So give me just one chance
And one by one I'll prove you wrong
One by one I'll prove you wrong

G#
Sometimes I think
           D# 
I've been wrong
     Fm
But this is the place
                  D#
that I think I belong
    C#
And everytime I speak
my mind I'm
              C#m
leaving you behind

Chorus:
And I won't miss my flight again
I'm not where I belong
So give me just one chance
And one by one I'll prove you wrong

I won't miss my flight again
I'm not where I belong
So give me just one chance
And one by one I'll prove you wrong
One by one I'll prove you wrong
One by one I'll prove you wrong
One by one I'll prove you wrong
