Verse
      B                                          D#
          Take your wings outside   you can't fly in here
      B                                        D#                          C#          E          D#
          Besides a purple sky's   better soaring for you my angel
      B                             D#
          You're an angel   you little devil
      C#                                                B                             C#          F#
          As for me I'll stay inside, I'll be just fine, and I'll watch from the window



      B                                D#
         Can not categorize the nature of this sickness
      B                                              D#                 C#             E                 D#
         A miracle that you're alive, stuck to the roof of my mouth with a staple
      B                                             D#
         Remember last April when we saw US Maple
      C#                                                           B                  C#
         Somehow the singer showed the Fireside exactly how I feel 


Chorus
      D#                                     B           C#
        So we say goodbye and go underground
      D#                                    B                 C#
        Or up towards the sky, up in smoke, burnt down to size
      D#                            B
        At least we're still friends
      C#                             F#
        At least we're still alive 


Verse
      (note- in this verse strike each chord only once and let it ring)
	  B                                        D#
       Take your wings outside, no use for them in here
       Bad luck to open inside, work like umbrellas, like a broken mirror
      B                              D# 
       It's getting clearer, the end is closer
          C#                                                                         B
C#
       Than ever before and you'll want nothing more, when your head hits the floor, when you're lost in 
the
darkness
