AN AIRPORT BATHROOM
JAX
CAPO: 2nd FRET
Intro
[G]
Verse
[G]
12 sticks lined up
All labeled with a marker
[Em]
But deep down I knew
The lines weren't getting darker
[C]
But I obsessed
[G]
I bought more tests
The faintest line
Is still a yes
[G]
I hoped
Verse
[G]
And I had this realistic dream
Where I held you in my arms
[Em] [G/B]
And I don't know why, but I convinced myself
[G] [Em]
That dreams were signs from God
[C]
And that you were fine
I see a line
[G]
And you'd be mine
In 9 months time
[G]
I hoped
[C]
The doctor said it's early
[G]
He called you chemical and that pissed me off
[C]
And everything went blurry
[G]
I shut the lights and curled up in a ball
[D]
Sure, you were small
Chorus
[G]
But you had a name
[C]
I ordered little shoes
[Em]
You had a daddy who watched about a million Youtubes
[D]
On how to swaddle you
[G]
We told the family
[C]
That you were coming soon
[Em]
You had a fuzzy blue monkey that used to be mommy's
[D]
That was waiting here for you
[Em] [D] [C]
And just like that I had to say goodbye to you
In an airport bathroom
[G] [G]
In an airport bathroom
Verse
[G]
All I could think about is why did this even happen?
[Em]
Was there something wrong?
Was it all my fault?
Now someone's asking
[C]
Are you pregnant?
Are you trying?
[G]
Don't start crying
[C]
Don't start crying
[G]
Don't make it weird
[C]
But once I started smiling
[G]
My husband finally let himself cry
[C]
'Cause our DNA made DNA
[G]
And we were mom and dad for a moment in time
[D]
You were more than a line
Chorus
[G]
But you had a name
[C]
I ordered little shoes
[Em]
You had a daddy who watched about a million Youtubes
[D]
On how to swaddle you
[G]
We told the family
[C]
That you were coming soon
[Em]
You had a fuzzy blue monkey that used to be mommy's
[D]
That was waiting here for you
[Em] [D] [C]
And just like that I had to say goodbye to you
[C]
In an airport bathroom
[G] [G]
In an fucking airport bathroom
Bridge
[C]
17 months later
[C] [G]
I found myself back in that same bathroom
[C] [C]
And I looked in the mirror with a baby in my arms
[G]
And I thought of you
[D]
And how someday soon
Outro
[G]
We'll meet again
[C]
In a better place
[Em]
That's when I'll hear
[D]
A little voice say
[C]
Mama I've been waiting for you
N.C.
And we were so much bigger than an airport bathroom
