Okay, we got a couple of people up here at the [N] front.
We're going to try a little thing called take a step back.
One, two, three, everybody take a step back.
Back!
And again.
One, two, three, eight, seven.
Take a step back.
Let's start in the back and move from the front.
Okay, we're going to try and take another [G] step back.
[F]
Did anybody breathe yet?
[A] No?
[D#] Well, let's try and take another step [F#m] back.
One, two, one, two, [N] three, back.
Whoa, I can see chests moving through the air.
Can anybody [F#] breathe now?

[D] [A]
[D]
[D] [Am] out of any window [Em] any morning, [C]
any evening, [G] any day.
[Bm] [D] Maybe [Am] the sun is shining, [Em] birds are winging,
[G]
rain is falling [A] from a heavy sky.
[A]
[G] [D] What do you want me to do, [Am] to do for you,
[Em] to see [D] you through?
[C] Oh, this is all [D] you could dream, you'd be [A] one afternoon [G] on the go.
[Em] Walk [Am] out of that [A] doorway, [E] feel your way, [C] feel your way,
like the daily [G] flow.
[G] [Bm] [D] Maybe [Am] you'll find direction [Em] around some corner
[G] where it's a good way [A] to meet you.
[A] [D] What do [G] you want me to do, [Am] to watch for you while [Em] you're [D] sleeping?
[Am] Well, please don't [C] be surprised when [G] you find me [D] dreaming too.
Mm [G]
[Am]
[Em] [C]
[A] [D]
[B] [G]
[Am]
[Em] [G]
[D] [Em]
[A]
-hmm.
Look into [Am]
any [Em] house you find by you, [C] you can lead me to [D] another [G] place.
[D] Maybe it's [A]
even more [E] than what I've found, [G]
another place [A] I'll go.
Oh, what [D] do [G] you want me to [Am] do for you, [Em] to see [D] you through?
[C] It's all a dream [Em] we dream, [D] you'd be one afternoon [G] on the go.
[D] Walk [Am] into the still, good [E] sunlight, easy to wake [C] to,
dead dreams to [G] the wonderland.
[Bm] [D]
Maybe [Am] you're tired of broken, [Em] tired of just [G] the good words I've spoken
[A] at the box I'm cleaning.
[D] What do [G] you want me to [A] do for [Em] you, to see [D] you through?
A [Am] box of [C] rain will ease the [G] pain that love will see [D] you through.
[G]
Just a box of rain, [Am]
wind [Em] and water,
[C]
and even if [A] you need it, if [D] you don't just pass it on.
[G]
Sun and shower, [Am]
wind [Em] and rain,
[G]
in and out [D] the window like [E] a bomb [A] before they made.
[D]
[A]
And [D] if just a box of [Em]
rain, I don't [G] know who put [D] it there.
You can leave it if [Bm] you need it, [G] or leave it if you [A]
dare.
[D] And if just a box [Em] of rain, hold [G] on with the pull of your [D]
hair.
It's [Em] a long, [E] long time to be [G] gone, just one time you'll be there.
[D] [A]
