[Intro]
G Am7/G G D7
[Verse]
GA tiny little planet
EmSwirling through the stars
CIn a traffic jam of Am7orbits
Am7Jupiter and D7Mars
GDodging down the beltway
EmDriving way too fast
With the sCearchlights of the gAm7alaxy
Am7Twinkling from theD7 past G Am7/G G
[Verse]
GAt the edge of where it's turning
EmGoing faster as it spins
There's a vCiew into the dAm7arkness
Am7Where emptiness D7begins
GA tiny little planet
EmA backyard with a hedge
We were sCafe back in the mAm7iddle
Am7But the viD7ew is from the Gedge G Am7/G G
[Verse]
GLike the ones up on the towers
EmWho really feel it sway
And they're Cdashed against the rAm7ailing
Am7And the railing D7breaks away
GAnd they're hanging by the wreckage
EmAnd they feel it start to give
CIf they had the tAm7ime to tellC you
Am7They could tD7ell you how to Glive G Am7/G G
[Bridge]
F#dimWhen the movie's C/Gover
And we're Dback out on the Gstreet
F#dimIt rained while we were in C/Gthere
So it Dshimmers at our Gfeet
[Verse]
GReflections of the skyline
GShimmering Emabove
So we ride Cup to the top Am7floors
D7Falling more in Glove
GThen the elevator opens
EmAn old man with a cane
CHe steps in kinda Am7slowly
Am7And winces with the D7pain
GOr maybe with the mEmemories
EmTo see that dress you wear
In a faCshion so fAm7amiliar
Am7He's trying not to sD7tare G Am7/G G
[Verse]
GCause you look like his first love
EmWhen he could run for miles
CShe wore a dress just Am7like yours
Am7And now it's back in D7style
GAnd he can see the beauty
EmThat you cannot perceive
Until you've eCarned the eGyes to gAm7limpse it
Am7Just before you leD7ap G Am7/G G
[Bridge]
F#dimThe galaxy is staC/Grdust
DNothing but a wiGsp
F#dimWhirling through theC/G mystery
Am7Into the aD7byss
[Verse]
GAt the precipice of darkness
EmOur toes right on the ledge
We were Csafe back in the mAm7iddle
Am7But the view is from theD7 edge G Am7/G G
[Outro]
GA galaxy of stardust
Nothing but a Emwisp
CWhirling through theAm7 darkness
Am7Into the aD7byss
GA tiny little planet
EmA backyard with a hedge
We were sCafe there in the Am7middle
Am7But the vD7iew is from the Gedge G Am7/G G
We were sCafe there in the Am7middle
Am7But the vD7iew is from the Gedge
G Am7/G G G
