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