[N] _ [C] _ _ _ Put _ _
[Am] _ _ _ _ [Em] your hands together and welcome to the stage,
[C] _
_ Mariah Carey.
_ [Am] _ _ _
_ _ _ _ [Em] _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ [C] _ _
_ _ _ _ _ [Am] _ _ _
_ _ [Em] _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ [C] _ _ _ _
_ _ _ [Am] _ _ _ _ _
[Em] _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ [C] _ _ _ Once I [Am] wanted to be [Em] _
the _ _ _ greatest, _ _
_ [C] The _ wind [Am] would have _ _ focused [Em] on _ me.
_ _ _ [C] And [F] then _ came [Dm] the rush of the flood,
[G] _ Stars of mine turned into dust. _ _ _
[D] _ Melted [C] _ down into [Am] big black.
_ _ [Em] _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ With no _ [C] _ _ trace of [Am] grace, just in your [Em] _ _ _
honor.
_ _ [C] Lower me _ down _ [Am] to corporate _ sound.
_ [Em] Make a wash of space and time,
For the [F] _ lake and the [Dm] trace of my pain.
I was [G] sleeping, _ _ _ _ _ _
Lower me [F] down,
_ Pin me [Dm] in,
_ Curb the [G] ground, _
_ _ _ _ [C] For the later _ parade.
_ _ _ _ [Am] _ _
_ _ _ [Em] _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ [C] Once I [Am] wanted _ to be [Em] _ _ the _ greatest,
_ _ [C] _ _ To the fears of [Am] _ society,
Little [Em] Ralph,
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ [Cm] Will _ _ find the [Am]
courteous life.
[Em] And _ he _ _ feelin',
Lower me [F] _
down,
Pin me [Dm] in, _
Secure the [G] ground, _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ [F] Overlay _ _ the [Dm] trace of my fear.
I [G] was sleeping,
_ _ _ _ _ For the later [C] parade. _ _ _ _ _
[Am] _ _ _ _ _ [Em] _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ [C] Make a wash of space and time,
[Am] Oh, _ let you _ _ [Em] be the _ _ greatest.
_ _ _ [C] The _ wind,
A [A] _ waterfowl,
Could start with _ [Em] me. _ _ _ _
And [F] then came,
The [Dm] rush of the flood,
_ [G] _
Stars of mine turned _ _ into [F] _ dust.
_ _ _ [Dm] _ _ _ _ _ _ [G] _ _ _ _
