^EmGilbert works alone, late into the night ^FDangling from a freeway ov^Cerpass ^{F Em}He's welding rebar and sculpting concrete ^FThey're paving in the gap way out ^Cwest ^{F Dm}Off in the distance the sleeping ^Amcity shines ^FRaises his mask ^Cto take a look ^{F Dm}Slips from the perch still holding onto ^Amhis torch ^FI see him falling just li^Cke a burning star ^F

Out of control mmmmm^Emm mmmmmm ^{C Am F} And heading way of course mmmmmmm mmmmmm^{Em C Am F}

^EmWaking up confused in a bed of^F thorn ^C And a world ^Fturn upside down ^{Em Em}No questionasked no party ever surched ^FLike a blip Gilbert slips into^C the void ^{F Dm}A rustle nearby and vision app^Amears ^FMade from saquaro bo^Cots and rib ^{F Dm}She takes ahold of his prickly hand And togeth^Amer they stand

^FWalk on through the ruins of a wo^Crld ^F That lost control... Em C Am F....
