(intro 2x) Em G Am  D 

Em             G
When the time comes
Am                     D
That you're no longer here
Em               G
Fall down to my knees
Am             G
Begin my nightmare
Em                           G
Words spill from my drunken mouth
Am                       D
I just can't keep'em all in
Em                        G
I keep up with the racing rats
Am                 D
And do my best to win

(intro)

(verso 1)
Slow down little one
You can't keep running away
You mustn't go outside yet
It's not your time to play
Standing at the edge of your town
With the skyline in your eyes
Reaching up to god
    Am                D     Em
The sun says its goodbyes

     C             D             Em
If a plane were to fall from the sky
          C             G
How big a hole would it leave
       D
In the surface of the earth

(verso 1)
Let's pretend we never met
Let's pretend we're on our own
We live different lives
Until our covers blown
I push my hand up to the sky
Shade my eyes from the sun
As the dust settles around me
         Am             D Em
Suddenly nightime has begun

(refr?o)
D
The surface of the earth

Em     C
Come on now
    G             D
You knew you were lost
        Em     C     G D
But you carried on anyway
   Em     C
Oh come on now
    G               D
You knew you had no time
        Em     C        G   D    Em
But you let the day drift away

(refr?o)
       D
In the surface of the earth
                       Em
