Paper Aeroplanes - Same Mistakes
[Capo on 1st fret]
Leave it be
Don t make the same mistakes as me
Cause I gave up quickly
To fly like a bird on the breeze
And I fell down swiftly,
Shaking the fruit from the trees
Tearing holes in the knees of my jeans
So don t make the same mistakes as me
Save it, please
Save our sweet simplicity
And you ll rise up gently
To float like a bird on the breeze
And you ll climb down slowly,
Taken to feet gracefully
Treading soft on the soles of your feet
And you won t make the same mistakes as me
So let s rise up gently,
Floating like birds on the breeze
And we ll take it slowly,
Over the town and the trees
And we ll land
Where the sand meets the sea
We ll be soft on the soles of our feet
And we won t make the same mistakes as me
