[Intro 1]
[F#m][Bm][G][Bm][F#m][Bm]
[G][A][Bm]
[G][A]

[Verse 1]
[Bm]Rising and spira[G]ling
Then vanish in the [A]wind[Bm]
I can't tell where the [A]land
[G]Ends and they sky begin[A]s[Bm]
Are you acquainted [D]with[G]
The threat of being [A]killed[Bm]
Are you conversing with [G]pi
geons on the windowsill
[F#m]And every battle has been fought[G]
And everything I think [D]was thought
Down and down we've [A]descended
[Bm]Every day keeps getting shorter
[G]As my sleeves start getting longer
[A]An [Bm]d the sidewalks
over[G]flow[A]
[Bm]Patronize pedestrian
With [G]no sense of direction
I [A]am [Bm]lost and can't ask a [G]ques[A]tion
[Bm]Rising and spira[A]ling
[G]They vanish in the win[A]d[Bm]
I can't tell when the [D]land
[G]Ends and the sky [D]begins
This [Bm]city truly is assaulting
my senses
Unkempt unruly [A]devour
defense[G]less
Occupant if [D]poverty [Bm]build character
And [D]spoils [A]breed arr[G]ogance
[D]Id rather con[Bm]sort with the low
[F#m]and th[A]e decade[G]nt
[F#m]Every battle has been
[G]fought
Everything I think had been [D]thought
Down and down we've
[A]descended[Bm]
Everyday keeps getting shorter
[G]As my sleeves keep getting longer
[A]And[Bm] the sidewalks
over[G]flow[A]
[Bm]Patronize pedestrian
With [G]no sense of direction
I am [Bm]lost and can't ask a
[G]ques[A]tion[Bm]
You'd better have the strength
Of the wandering aimless
With an audience of the most prestigious
Do you have the strain to love the one
You came with
I hope you have the strength
Were in the belly of
Every [F#m]battle has been [D]fought[G]
Everything I think has been [D]thought
Down and down we've
[G]des[D] ce[A]nded[Bm]
Every day keeps getting shorter
[G]As my sleeves start getting longer
An[Bm]d the sidewalks overflow
[G]Pat[Bm]ronize pedestrian
With [G]no sense of direction
I [Bm]am lost and can't ask a
[G]question
