Introdução:
C D
Step out the front door like a ghost
Em G
Into the fog where no one notices the contrast of white on white
C D
And in between the moon and you the angels get a better view
Em G
Of the crumbling difference between wrong and right
C D
I walk in the air, between the rain, through myself and back again
Em G
Where? I don't know
C D
But Maria says she's dying, through the door I hear her crying
Em G
I don't know
C5 D5 E5 G5
Round here we always stand up straight
C5 D5 E5 G5
Round here something radiates
Verse
C D
Well, Maria came from Nashville with a suitcase in her hand
Em G
She said she'd like to meet a boy who looks like Elvis
C D
She walks along the edge of where the ocean meets the land
Em G
It's like she's walking on a wire in the circus
C D
She parks her car outside of my house and takes her clothes off
Em G
Says she's close to understanding Jesus
C D
And she knows she's more than just a little misunderstood
Em G
She has trouble acting normal when she's nervous
C5 D5 E5 G5
Round here we're carving out our names
C5 D5 E5 G5
Round here we all look the same
C5 D5 E5 G5
Round here we talk just like lions but we sacrifice like lambs
C5 D5 E5 G5
Round here she's slipping through my hands
Bridge
E5 D5 G5 C5
Ohhh, sleeping children better run like the wind
E5 D5 G5
Out of the lightning dream
C5 E5
Mama's little baby better get herself in
D5
Out of the lightning
Em
She says, "It's only in my head"

Break
Em D G C
There's a girl on the corner out in the parking lot
Em D G C
She says, "Come on, now come on, just take a shot"
Em D
She says, "Can't you see me, can't you see me
G C
Can't you see my walls are tumbling down
Em D
Can't you see my walls are crumbling down
G C
Can't you see my sun stop spinning around
Em D
Can't you see the sky turn black and brown
G C
Can't you see the moon is flashing around
Em D
Can't you see me, can't you see me
G
Can't you see,"
C
"No!"
Em D
Said, there's a girl on the car in the parking lot
G C
She said, "Why don't you take a shot?
Em D G C
Can't you see my walls are crumbling?"
Em D G C
As she looks up at the building, she say's, "I'm thinking of jumping"
Em D G C
She says she's tired of life, she must be tired of something
C5 D5 E5 G5
Round here she's always on my mind
C5 D5 E5 G5
Round here, hey man, we've got lots of time
C5 D5 E5 G5
Round here we're never sent to bed early and nobody makes us wait
C5 D5 E5 G5
Round here we stay up very, very, very, very late
C5 D5 E5 G5
I can't see nothing, nothing round here
C5 D5
So catch if I'm falling, catch me if I'm falling
E5 G5
Catch me 'cause I'm falling down on you
Outro

I can't see nothing, nothing
Em
Round here
