VERSE 1:
Cmaj7		 D
falling down the stairs
D	       Cmaj7
climb into the sea
Cmaj7		     D
the world is on it's hands
D		  Cmaj7
then it's on it's feet

Cmaj7		 D
touch the silent man
D		   Cmaj7
who cares where he goes
Cmaj7		    D
stand high upon his back
D			     Cmaj7
like the ground beneath your toes


CHORUS:
Em			   D	   C
the breeze is too much for me - anymore
C		   G
(I've seen this in people who are weak)
Em			   D
and if I push the blade in deep
D			C
will in break inside of me
C	  G		 D
in me, in me, in me...in me

D  Cmaj7

VERSE 2:
Cmaj7	       D
reaching for a star
D			 Cmaj7
with my eyes dead on the floor
Cmaj7	       D
racing all the time
D			Cmaj7
my soul can't take much more

Cmaj7		 D
touch the silent man
D		    Cmaj7
who made himself so low


CHORUS:
Em			   D	   C
the breeze is too much for me - anymore
C		   G
(I've seen this in people who are weak)
Em			   D
and if I push the blade in deep
D			C
will in break inside of me
C	  G		 Em
in me, in me, in me...in me


BRIDGE: (Em   G   F#   F)
F		    Em	  G   F#
will I spit on him again
F		Em	G   F#
and turn myself away
F		  Em	Cmaj7  D
what more will it take


(SOLO)


VERSE 3:
Cmaj7		 D
falling down the stairs
D	       Cmaj7
climb into the sea
Cmaj7		     D
the world is on it's hands
D		  Cmaj7
then it's on it's feet

Cmaj7		 D
touch the silent man
D		    Cmaj7
who made himself so low
Cmaj7		  D
make yourself as small
D		  Cmaj7
just He and I and all
