Verse:
Dsus4 = x00233
Am7 = x02x33
Dsus4 Am7
Step out the front door like a ghost
Dsus4
into the fog where no one notices
Am7
the contrast of white on white.
Dsus4
And in between the moon and you#
Am7
the angels get a better view
Dsus4 Am7
of the crumbling difference between wrong and right.
Dsus4
I walk in the air between the rain
Am7
through myself and back again
Dsus4 Am7
Where? I don't know
Dsus4
Maria says she's dying
Am7
through the door I hear her crying
Dsus4 Am7
Why? I don't know
Chorus:
C D Em G
Round here we always stand up straight
C D Em G
Round here something radiates
Verse:
Maria came from Nashville with a suitcase in her hand
she said she'd like to meet a boy who looks like Elvis
she walks along the edge of where the ocean meets the land
just like she's walking on a wire in the circus
she parks her car outside of my house
takes her clothes off
says she's close to understanding Jesus
she knows she's more than just a little misunderstood
she has trouble acting normal when she's nervous
Chorus:
C D Em G
Round here we're carving out our names
C D Em G
Round here we all look the same
C D
Round here we talk just like lions
Em G
But we sacrifice like lambs
C D Em G
Round here she's slipping through my hands
Bridge:
A D
A Am7 D7/A A
Sleeping children better run like the wind
Am7 D7 A
Out of the lightning dream
Am7 D7/A A
Mama's little baby better get herself in
C D
Out of the lightning
Verse:
She says It's only in my head
She says Shhh I know it's only in my head
But the girl in car in the parking lot
says "Man you should try to take a shot
can't you see my walls are crumbling?"
Then she looks up at the building
and says she's thinking of jumping
She says she's tired of life
she must be tired of something
Chorus:
C D Em G
Round here she's always on my mind
C D Em G
Round here hey man got lots of time
C D
Round here we're never sent to bed early
Em G
And nobody makes us wait
C D Em G
Round here we stay up very, very, very, very late
C D Em
I can't see nothin'.... nothing', round here
G C
You catch me if i'm falling,
D
You catch me if i'm falling,
Em G
Will you catch me cause i'm falling down on you
Dsus4 Am7
I said i'm under the gun
Dsus4 Am7
around here
Dsus4 Am7
Oh, man I said i'm under the gun
Dsus4 Am7
Around here
Dsus4
And I can't see nothin',
Am7
nothin'
Em
Round here.
