(intro 2x) E5 G5 A5  D5 

E5             G5
When the time comes
A5                     D5
That you're no longer here
E5               G5
Fall down to my knees
A5             G5
Begin my nightmare
E5                           G5
Words spill from my drunken mouth
A5                       D5
I just can't keep'em all in
E5                        G5
I keep up with the racing rats
A5                 D5
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
    A5                D5     E5
The sun says its goodbyes

(refr?o)
     C5             D5             E5
If a plane were to fall from the sky
          C5             G5
How big a hole would it leave
       D5
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
         A5             D5 E5
Suddenly nightime has begun

(refr?o)
D5
The surface of the earth

E5     C5
Come on now
    G5             D5
You knew you were lost
        E5     C5     G5 D5
But you carried on anyway
   E5     C5
Oh come on now
    G5               D5
You knew you had no time
        E5     C5        G5   D5    E5
But you let the day drift away

(refr?o)
       D5
In the surface of the earth
                       E5
The surface of the earth
