[Intro - C5 , D5 , G5 , E5 , C5 , G5 , D5 , C5 ]

VERSE 1
C5
I was in the air when the towers came down
     G5                  E5
In a bar on the 84th floor
C5                  G5
I bought Philippe Petit a round
    D5                           C5
And asked what his high wire was for
    C5                          
He said, "I put one foot on the wire
G5                       E5
One foot straight into heaven
C5                              G5
As the prophets entered boldly into the bar
       D5       C5                D5        C5
On the Boeing 737, Lord, on the Boeing 737"

CHORUS
C5
Hey, little bird, would you be the one
G5                   E5
To nest beneath my Gatling gun?
C5
There's nothing left I call my own
G5                         C5
Come down and build me a home

VERSE 2
C5
I was in a bar when they rigged the towers
G5                      E5
Trying to leave all my sins
C5                      G5
The barmaid asked my order
     D5                  C5
And where my mind had been
C5
I tried to recall the high wire
G5                               E5
Philippe and his foot there in heaven
         C5                       G5
As the prophets entered boldly into the bar
        D5       C5                 D5     C5
On the Boeing 737, Lord, on the Boeing 737
