[C#m] [G#m]
[F#] [C#] [E]
[B] [C#] Once [C#m] was a man who [B] consumed [F#] his place and [C#m] time
He thought nothing [B] could touch [F#]
him
[C#] But here [C#m] and now it's [B] a different [F#] [C#] storyline
That [C#m] destroyer is [B] [F#] approaching
[E] Why has the sky turned [G#m] gray?
[C#m] Hard to my face [G#m] and cold on my shoulder
[E] Then why does my life [D#m] go [G#m] astray?
[C#m] Scarred by disgrace I [B] know that [A] it's over
[C#m] Because [E] I'm [B] falling down
[F#] [C#m] With these [E] walls standing [B] round
[F#] But [C#m] before [E] the [B] ground is my [F#] party
[D#m] I'll [C#m] find [E] someone out there [B] to help [F#] me
[C#m]
[E] Holler [B] [F#]
[C#m] through wind rushing [E] past [F#] my lonely [C#m] head
Caught inside a slow [B] motion
[F#] [C#m] How I wish it was [B] somebody [F#] else
[C#m] Instead howling at all this [B] erosion
[F#] [E] Why did the luck run [G#m] dry?
[C#m] Love in my face [E] so pleased to [G#] desert [F#] me
[E] Why do you prove I'm [G#m] sly?
[C#m] Now when disgrace can [B] no longer [A] hurt me
[C#m] Because [E] I'm [B] falling down
[F#] With [C#m] these [E] walls [B] standing round
[F#] But [C#m] before [E] I hit the [B] ground
Is there time to [C#m] help find [E] someone out there [B] that's [F#] me
[E]
[G#m] [C#m]
[B] [A] [C#m] Because I'm [E] falling [B] down
[F#] With [C#m] these walls [E] standing [B] round
[F#] But [C#m] before [E] I hit the [B] ground
Is there time to help find [N] someone out there that's me
[C#m] I don't know
[E] [B]
[E]
[B] [F#] I'm [C#m] so scared
