[Gm]
[D]
[G]
Step out the front door [E] like a ghost into [D] a fog where no [Em] one notices the contrast [G] of
white on white.
In between the moon and you, [E] angels get a better view of [Em] the crumbling difference [G] between
wrong and right.
I [C] walk in the air between the [D] rain through myself and back again [Em] where, I don't know,
[G]
Maria says she's dying through the [D] door I hear her crying, why, [Em] I don't know.
[G]
Around [C] here, [D] we always stand up [Em] straight.
[G]
Around [C] here, [D] something [Em] radiates.
[G]
Maria came from Nashville with a suitcase in her [D] hand.
She says [Em] she'd like to meet a boy who looks [G] like Elvis.
And she walks along the edge of where the [D] ocean meets the land [Em] just like she's walking
on a wire in a [G] circus.
She [C] parks her car outside of my house [D] and takes her clothes off.
[G] Says she's close to understanding Jesus.
And she knows she's Mormon, just a little [D] misunderstood.
She [Em] has trouble acting normal when she's [G] nervous.
Around [C] here, we're [D] carving out [Em] our names.
[G]
[C] Around here, [D] we all look [Em] the same.
[G]
[C] Around here, we talk just [D] like lions, but [Em] we sacrifice [G] like lambs.
[C] Around here, [D] she's slipping through [Em] my hands.
[A] [D]
[G] [A] [Am] Sleep in children, better [A] run like the wind.
[Am] Out of the [A] lightning, she leans.
[Am] Mom's little baby [A] better get herself in.
[C] Out of [D] the lightning.
[G] She says it's only in my [Em] head.
[G]
She says, [C] I know, [D] it's only [G] in [Em] my head.
[G]
Put the girl on the car in the parking lot.
Says, [Em] man, you should try to take a shot.
Can't you see [C] my [G] walls are crumbling?
And she [C] looks up at the building.
Says [D] she's thinking of jumping.
She says [G] she's tired of life.
She must be tired of something.
[C] He [D]
hangs on my [Em] [G]
neck.
Around [C] here, hey, man, [D] you got lots of [Em] time.
[G]
Around [C] here, we never sense a [D] better me.
Man, [Em] nobody makes us [G] wait.
Around [C] here, we stay up [D] very, very, [Em] very, very [G] late.
I can't see [C] nothing [D]
around [Em] here.
[G] Lord, you catch me if I'm [C] falling.
You catch me if I'm [D] falling.
You catch me because [Em] I'm glancing on [G] you.
I said, I'm not going [D]
[Em] around here.
[G]
I'm at us and [C] I'm under the gun.
[D]
[Em] Around here, [G]
and I can't see nothing, [Dm] nothing.
Around here.
[Em]
