Em    F#m7  G    D                  C
Eight miles high and when you touch down
G                     D             C     C6 C C6
You'll find that it's stranger than known
Em    F#m7   G     D                      C
Signs in the street that say where you're going
G             D                C   C6 C C6
Are somewhere just being their own
 
               
Em F#m7 Em F#m7
 
Em F#m7  G  D           C
No-where is there to be found
G            D                     C     C6 C C6
Among those afraid of losing their ground
Em    F#m7 G    D             C
Mean grey town known for its sound
G         D               C   C6 C C6
In places small places un-bound

Em  F#m7 G       D         C
Now the  squares of moving storms
G             D                   C    C6 C C6
Some laughing some just shapeless forms
Em   F#m7 G      D                C
Sidewalk scenes and black limosouines
G           D              C    C6 C C6
Some living some standing alone
