Another plane went down today in the Atlantic, nine miles off shore

We liked to smoke in the car in the winter, with all the windows rolled down

I had a dream a plane exploded over the lake one afternoon

I still remember the feeling when I woke up, I can't describe the magnitude 

Verse 
G             Dm 
So many other dreams 
    G                Dm 
The one that I had today 
Em                  F 
You and the Italian woman, naked 
     C                   F 
Your fingers between her legs 
    G                      Dm 
She lay like a body in the water 
    G                Dm 
She barely made a sound 
    Em                F 
She fell as quiet, as quiet 
     C                   Dm 
As a leaf falling to the ground

Meanwhile back on earth, I told you to fuck off and go away 
                   Em                        F          Dm 
I've gotta call my friend who moved from New York to LA

Five days before Christmas last year, his girlfriend died in a plane crash and 
             A                           Em                          F          Dm 
He says, the way that it happens is your heart is so heavy, it rips away upon impact 

Bridge 
Em                    Dm 
Then you just bleed inside 
    Em                Dm 
You don't even feel a thing 
     Em                       Dm 
They found her on a hill in Columbia 
  Em               Dm 
Intact among the debris 

Verse 
G             Dm 
So many other dreams 
    G                       Dm 
The ones where I'm on death row 
    Em                      F 
The ones where I don't know why 
    C                    F 
The one where my parents drove 
  G                   Dm 
I wish I was with you now 
G                        Dm 
Down at the Sixth Street bar 
Em              F 
Laughing at the singer

Smoking in the car
