E
Today I took a walk in the clouds

Today I took a walk in the clouds
                     C#m
Used to keep my eyes wide shut
           A          E
But now I'm staring down


E
Today I felt a switch in my vein

Today I felt a switch in my vein
             C#m
Used to be a shadow
      A                E
Now a shadow scream my name
            C#m              A
And in the daylight I could swear

We're the same


                         E
But I'm just an ordinary human

Ordinary ways
                     C#m
I'm just an ordinary human
            A                  E
But I don't feel so ordinary today
                           
I'm just a picture perfect nothing

Sometimes I medicate
                          C#m
I'll be a picture perfect human
           A               E
Before the sun goes down today


E
Today I felt a switch in my vein

Today I made them all afraid
             C#m
Used to be a shadow
      A                E
Now a shadow scream my name
           C#m               A
And in the daylight I could swear

We're the same


                         E
But I'm just an ordinary human

Ordinary ways
                     C#m
I'm just an ordinary human
            A                  E
But I don't feel so ordinary today

I'm just a picture perfect nothing

Sometimes I medicate
                          C#m
I'll be a picture perfect human
           A               E
Before the sun goes down today


                  C#m
Just an ordinary human
            A                 E
But I don't feel so typical today

E
There'll be peace in the city tonight

Peace in the city tonight
    A
But when I'm gone
                   E
I hope they get it right

There'll be peace in the city tonight

Peace in the city tonight
    A
For when I'm gone
                   E
I hope they get it right


E
Just an ordinary human

Ordinary ways
            A
An ordinary human
                           E
I don't feel so ordinary today


    A
But when I'm gone
                   E
I hope they get it right
