When I Fall Barenaked Ladies
INTRO: D G A Bm G (x2)
I look straight in the [D]window, [A] try not to look [Bm]below [G]
Pretend I'm not [D]up here, [A] I try counting [E]sheep [G]
The sheep seem to [D]shower, [A] off this off[Bm]ice tower [G]
It's 9.8 [D]straight down, [A] I can't stop my [E]knees. [G]
CHORUS:
I wish I could f[Bm]ly, from this [A]building, from this [E]wall. [G]
And if I should [Bm]try, would you [A]catch me, if I f[E]all. [G]
My hands clench the[D] squeegee, [A] a seclar ro[Bm]sary [G]
Hang onto your [D]wallet, [A] hang onto your r[E]ings. [G]
I can't look[D] below me, [A] something might[Bm] throw me. [G]
I curse at the [D]windstorms, [A] that October [E]brings. [G]
I look in the [D]boardroom, [A] a modern Ph[Bm]araoh's tomb. [G]
I'd gladly swap [D]places, [A] if they care to [E]dive [G]
They're lined up at[D] the window[A], peer down i[Bm]nto limb[G]o
Frightened of j[D]umping, [A] in case they [E]survive. [G]
I wish I could [G]step, from this scaf[A]fold,
Onto [Bm]soft green grass and [E]shopping malls,
or b[G]ed, with my [A]family, and my [Bm]pastor and my [A]grandfather
who's [E]dead. [G]
(softly) D A Bm G
Look straight in the mirror, watch it come clearer
I look like a pa[D]inter, beh[A]ind all the grease.[E] [G]
But painting's [D]creating, [A] and I'm just er[Bm]asing [G]
A crystal clear [D]canvas, [A] is my master[E]piece. [G]
CHORUS:
I wish I could f[Bm]ly, from this [A]building, from this [E]wall. [G]
And if I should [Bm]try, would you [A]catch me, if I f[E]all. [G]
I wish I could f[Bm]ly, from this [A]building, from this [E]wall. [G]
And if I should [Bm]try, would you [A]catch me, if I f[E]all. [G]
When I [D]fa[A]ll[Bm]...[G] [D]Wh[A]en[E] I[G] fall.... mmmmmm
