Intro:    G    C9    G  C9  
        G  D  G
I fouGnd myself down at the AC9irways MotGel
Drunk and half hearted agDain
AlGone with a woman who's nC9ot gonna tGell
What I've been doin' and wheDre I have bGeen
It seems Sunday mornings, they coC9me without warGning
I'm never ready for the way Dthat I feel
So Gsick of lying, I know thaC9t I'm dyiGng
>From all of these secrets that DI can't rGeveal
Chorus:
But I can stiCll sing along with the Gchoir
While I fiDght through my own private Ghell
CauCght between heaven and aGll my deCsire
For the gGirl at the AirDways MoGtel
When I promised forever the night that I married
I meant every word that I said
But a couple years later I stand here a liar
Next to the woman I know I've misled
Looking around at this whole congregation
Too tired to listen, I play with my ring
I wonder who all of us think that we're fooling
Hiding from someone who sees everything
Chorus
Somewhere between heaven and all my desire
For the girl at the Airways Motel
