This is based on the tab from Matthew Nordhaus, I made some changes that seem to make it play better IMHO. -- Capo 2nd Fret -- INTRO: D G A Bm G (x2) D A Bm G I look straight in the window, try not to look below D A E G Pretend I'm not up here, I try counting sheep D A Bm G The sheep seem to shower, off this office tower D A E G It's 9.8 straight down, I can't stop my knees. CHORUS: Bm A E G I wish I could fly, from this building, from this wall. Bm A E G And if I should try, would you catch me, if I fall. D A Bm G My hands clench the squeegee, a seclar rosary D A E G Hang onto your wallet, hang onto your rings. D A Bm G I can't look below me, something might throw me. D A E G I curse at the windstorms, that October brings. D A Bm G I look in the boardroom, a modern Pharaoh's tomb. D A E G I'd gladly swap places, if they care to dive D A Bm G They're lined up at the window, peer down into limbo D A E G Frightened of jumping, in case they survive. G A I wish I could step, from this scaffold, Bm E Onto soft green grass and shopping malls, G A Bm A or bed, with my family, and my pastor and my grandfather E G who's dead. (softly) D A Bm G Look straight in the mirror, watch it come clearer D A E G I look like a painter, behind all the grease. D A Bm G But painting's creating, and I'm just erasing D A E G A crystal clear canvas, is my masterpiece. CHORUS: Bm A E G I wish I could fly, from this building, from this wall. Bm A E G And if I should try, would you catch me, if I fall. Bm A E G I wish I could fly, from this building, from this wall. Bm A E G And if I should try, would you catch me, if I fall. D A Bm G D A E G When I fall... When I fall.... mmmmmm
