C F
Won't you look up at the skyline

at the mortar, block, and glass.

and check out the reflections in my eyes.

See they always used to be there

even when this was all was grass,
F D/F# G72 G7
and I sang and danced about a high rise.

And you were laughing at my helmet hat

Laughing at my torch.

I got my philosophy

Keeps me running when I'm falling down.
