[A]
I looked [C#m] up at the tallest building
[A] Felt [C#m] it falling [B]
down
[A] I could [C#m] feel my balance shifting
[B] Yeah, [C#] everything [B] was moving [E] around
These streets so [C#m] fixed and solid
Our [B] shimmering faces
[A] And everything [G#m] that [C#m] I realized
[B] Disappeared
[A] Down, [E] side up, [C#m] upside down
[E]
[A] Take [E] my weight from [C#m] the ground
[E]
[A] [E] Falling deep in [A] the sky
[E]
Slipping [A] in the unknown
All the strangers, [C#m] the black family
[A] All the family, [C#m] look so [B] strange
[A] The only [E] constant I am sure of
[B] Is this accelerating rate of change
[A] Down, [E] side up, upside [C#m] down
[B] [E] [A] Take my [E] weight off [C#m] the [A] ground
[B] [A]
[E] Falling deep in [C#m] the sky
[A]
[E] Slipping in [A] the unknown
We stand [E] here, watching spinning
Until [G#m] I'm drowning
