G7 Blue light on my ceiling Midnight in my hands Dm          C               G             Am Thumb keeps finding nothing on a thousand borrowed plans       Dm                                G7 Every window open, every promise out of reach              C          G            Am I’m drowning in a crowd and starving for a speech                      Dm I trade my peace for pings again              G7 My worth for little hearts                 C Another reel of someone else     G           Am And I forget my part           Dm I’m going offline tonight Airplane on my restless mind G7 Let the quiet hold the room         C Let the mercy take its time    G                          Am If there’s a voice that still can heal                Dm Let it find me in the night     Dm7             G7 I’m closing all the glowing doors           C I’m going offline G7     G       Am Coffee gets me to the noon          Dm          Dm7 The noon slides into gray Dm                 G7 I’m tired of being everywhere           C And never finding a state G           Am7                         Dm7 I’ve made a home of hurry, it’s a house that never sleeps                    G7                      C I need a rest that isn’t bought, a promise I can keep Am7               Dm                                    G7 If there’s a yoke that isn’t heavy, if there’s rest for aching bones               C              G               Am I’m listening in the silence for a road that leads me home           Dm I’m going offline tonight                         G Airplane on my restless mind               C Let the quiet hold the room, let the mercy take its time G                       Am If there’s a voice that still can heal     Am7     Dm7 Let it find me in the night                     G7 I’m closing all the glowing doors C I’m going offline G   Dm7    G7 The weight I carry isn’t light               C        G I try to lift it on my own Am                  Dm7 But Jesus says come rest in me G7                C Lonely hearts can come back home G                  Am If you are gentle, if you’re near                       Dm7  Dm Then take this hurry, take this pride                    G7     G Teach my breathing how to pray                 C           G And lay me down inside your life C         Dm I’m going offline tonight                G7 Airplane on my restless mind                             C Let the quiet hold the room Let the mercy take its time Bm7            Am                 Dm7 Jesus, speak a softer word Let it find me in the night             G7                    C         G I’m closing all the glowing doors I’m going offline C   F Oh, oh, oh
