Cadd9 D
Step out the front door like a ghost
Em7
into the fog where no-one notices
G
the contrast of white on white.
Cadd9
And in in between the moon and you
D
angels get a better view
Em7 G
of the crumbling difference between wrong and right.
Cadd9
I walk in the air between the rain
D
through myself and back again.
Em7 G
Where? I don't know.
Cadd9
Maria says she's dying.
D
Through the door I hear her crying?
Em7 G
Why? I don't know
C D Em G
Round here we always stand up straight
C D Em G
Round here, something radiates.
Cadd9 D
Maria came from nashville with a suitcase in her hand
Em7 G
She said she'd like to meet a boy who looks like elvis
Cadd9 D
She walks along the edge where the ocean meets the land
Em7 G
just like she's walking on a wire in the circus
Cadd9 D
She parks her car outside of my house
takes her clothes off,
Em7 G
She say's she's close to understanding Jesus
Cadd9 D
She knows she's more than just a little misunderstood
Em7 G
She has trouble acting normal when shes nervous
C D Em G
Round here we're carving out our names
C D Em G
Round here we all look the same
C D
Round here we talk just like lions
Em G
But we sacarifice like lambs
C D Em
Round here she's slipping through my hands
A D G A G
A Am7 D7/A A
A
Sleeping children better run like the wind
Am7 D7 A G A
Out of the lightning dream
Am7 D7/A A
A
Mama's little baby better get herself in
C D
Out of the lightning
Cadd9 D Em7 G
She says, "It's only in my head."
Cadd9 D Em7 G
She says, "shh...I know it's only in my head."
Cadd9
But the girl on the street by the parking lot
D
says:"Man, you should try to Take a shot
Em7 G
Can't you see my walls are crumbling?"
Cadd9
Then she looks up at the building
D
Say's she's thinking of jumping
Em7
She says she's tired of life;
G
She must be tired of something.
C D Em G
Round here she's always on my mind
C D Em G
Round here I got lots of time
C D
Round here we're never sent to bed early
Em G
Man, nobody makes us wait
C D Em G
round here we stay up very, very, very, very late.
C D
I can't see nothin', nothin'
Em
Around here
G C
You catch me if i'm falling,
D
You catch me if i'm falling,
Em
Will you catch me cause i'm falling down on you
G Cadd9 D
I said i'm under the gun
Em7 G
around here
Cadd9 D
Oh, man I said i'm under the gun
Em7
Around here
G Cadd9
And I can't see nothin',nothin'
Em
Round here.
