[Cadd9]Step out the front door like a [D]ghost
into the fog where no-one [Em7]notices
the contrast of w[G]hite on white.
And in in betw[Cadd9]een the moon and you
ang[D]els get a better view
of the c[Em7]rumbling difference between [G]wrong and right.
I walk i[Cadd9]n the air between the rain
[D]through myself and back again.
[Em7]Where? I don't know.[G]
[Cadd9] Maria says she's dying.
Through the door I h[D]ear her crying?
Why? I [Em7]don't know[G]
Round here[C] we al[D]ways stand up straight[Em] [G]
Round here[C], some[D]thing radiates.[Em] [G]
Mar[Cadd9]ia came from nashville with a [D]suitcase in her hand
She said she'd l[Em7]ike to meet a boy who looks like [G]elvis
S[Cadd9]he walks along the edge where th[D]e ocean meets the land
just like she's [Em7]walking on a wire in the circu[G]s
She[Cadd9] parks her car outside of my hou[D]se
takes her clothes off,
[Em7]She say's she's close to understanding [G]Jesus
She knows she's [Cadd9]more than just a little m[D]isunderstood
She has [Em7]trouble acting normal when shes [G]nervous
Round h[C]ere we're c[D]arving out our n[Em]ames[G]
Round h[C]ere we all [D]look the sam[Em]e[G]
Round here[C] we talk just like lions[D]
But we s[Em]acarifice like lambs[G]
Round here[C] she's slippi[D]ng through my han[Em]ds
[A] [D] [G] [A] [G]
[A] [Am7] [D7/A] [A]
[A] Sleeping children better run like the wind
[Am7]Out of the l[D7]ightning dream[A] [G] [A]
[Am7] [D7/A] [A]
[A]Mama's little baby better get herself in
O[C]ut of the l[D]ightning
She s[Cadd9]ays, "It's[D] only in my [Em7]head."[G]
She s[Cadd9]ays, "shh...I know it's[D] only in my[Em7] head."[G]
But the [Cadd9]girl on the street by the parking lot
says:"[D]Man, you should try to Take a shot
[Em7]Can't you see my walls are crumbling?"[G]
Then she [Cadd9]looks up at the building
Say's she's th[D]inking of jumping
She says she's t[Em7]ired of life;
She must be ti[G]red of something.
Round here[C] she's al[D]ways on my mi[Em]nd[G]
Round[C] here [D]I got lots of t[Em]ime[G]
Round here[C] we're never sent to bed ear[D]ly
Man, no[Em]body makes us wai[G]t
round here[C] we stay up [D]very, very, [Em]very, very la[G]te.
I can't see no[C]thin', noth[D]in'
Around he[Em]re
[G] You catch me if i'm f[C]alling,
You catch me if i'm f[D]alling,
Will you catch me cause i'm f[Em]alling down on you
[G] I said i'm u[Cadd9]nder the gun[D]
a[Em7]round her[G]e
Oh, man I said i'm [Cadd9]under the gu[D]n
Around h[Em7]ere
[G] And I can't see nothin',n[Cadd9]othin'
Round her[Em]e.
