verses

Em    F#m11/G  G/E         D   Dsus2      C  C9
eight miles    high    and when you       touch down
G                     D   Dsus2      C Csus2 C Csus2
you'll find that its  stranger than known
Em    F#m11/G  G/E         D   Dsus2      C  C9
signs in   the street that say where youre going
G                 D  Dsus2     C Csus2 C Csus2
are somewhere just being their own

Em

nowhere is there warmth to be found
among those afraid of losing their ground
rain gray town known for its sound
in places small faces unbound

round the squares huddled in storms
some laughing some just shapeless forms
sidewalk scenes and black limousines
some living some standing alone
