[G][A][B]

[Verse 1]
[Em]Tell
me how I [C]got [G]here
Stuck inside the [A]wheels of
this ma[B]chine[Em]
The stranger in the [C]mirror[G]
Is hiding from [A]the man he
used [B]to be[Em][C]
The man he used to [G]be[A][B][Em]
So why don't I just [C]undress[G]
Remind myself this [A]cubicle ain't [B]steel[Em]
And scream out I'm [C]not like this
[G]A miscast and a l[A]ife that is [B]surreal
[C]I stay at home almost every night
[Em]My girlfriend wants to be my wife
[C]And pretty soon
somebody's [D]calling me daddy
[Eb]I wish[Em] I believed in this beau[C]tiful lie
But [G]I can't pretend that
I [A]fit this dis[B]guise
[Bm]Save[Em] me from falling or teac[C]h me to fly
If [G]she's got me crawling on the
[A]edge of the [B]sky[Em][C][G]
[A][B]
[Bm]I th[Em]ink I need a heale[C]r
[G]To help me to re[A]nounce
my guilty [B]crime
[Em]I came up here to pl[C]ease her,
[G]but I get dizzy [A]without looking [B]down.
[C]I lost my soul to someone else,
[Em]I barely recognize myself.
[C]Am I the only one at this cos[D]tume par[Eb]ty?
I [Em]wish I believed in this [C]beautiful life,
But [G]I can't pretend that I f[A]it this disguise
[B]Sav[Em]e me from falling,
or [C]teach me to fly
[G]She's got me crawling on the
[A]edge of the [B]sky[Em]scraper
I'm [C]a a[Em] a I'[G]m [A]sky I'm[Bm]

[C]I stay at home almost every night
[Em]My girlfriend wants to be my wife
[C]And pretty soon
somebody's [D]calling me [Eb]daddy
Call[D]ing me [Eb]daddy
I [Em]wish I believed in this [C]beautiful life
But [G]I can't pretend that
I'm [A]in this disguise
[Bm]Save[Em] me from falling or teac[C]h me to fly
And [G]she's got me crawling
on the [A]edge of a [B]skyscraper
