[F#m] [C]
[G] [D]
There's [F#m] traffic in the sky and it [C] doesn't seem to [G] be getting much better
[D] There's kids playing games on the pavement [F#m] drawing waves on the [C] pavement
[Gm] Shadows of [G] the planes on the [D] pavement
It's enough [F#m] to make me cry, [C] but that don't seem like it will make [Em] you feel better
[D] Maybe it's a dream and if I [F#m] scream it will burst at the seams
[C]
Whole place would fall [Em] into pieces and then [A]
they'd say
[G#] [G]
Well, how [A] could we have known our [D] building is not so [Bm] hard to tell?
[G] Nah, nah, nah
You keep [A] adding stones
Soon [D] the water will be [Bm] lost in the well
[G]
[A] [D]
Puzzle pieces in [F#m] the ground
[C]
No one ever seems [Em] to be digging instead
[D] They're looking up towards the [F#m] heavens with their eyes on the [C] heavens
The [Em] shadows on the way to the [D] heavens
It's enough to [F#m] make me cry [C] that don't seem like it [Em] will make you feel better
The [D] answers could be found we could learn from [F#m] digging down
[C] But no one ever seems [Em] to be digging instead.
[A]
They'll say
[G#] [G]
Well, how [A] could we have known [D] our building is not so hard [Bm] to tell?
[G] Nah, nah, nah
You keep [A] adding stones
Soon [D] the water will be [Bm] lost in the well
[G]
Hmm
[A] [D]
And words of wisdom all [F#m] around
[C] But no one ever [Em] seems to listen
They're [D] talking about the plans on the paper [F#m] building up from the [C] pavement
The [Em] shadows from the scrapers on the [D] pavement
It's enough [F#m] to make me sigh
[C] That don't seem like it will make [Em] you feel better.
The words [D] are all around but the words [F#m] are only sounds
[C] And no one ever [Em] seems to listen instead [A] they'll say
[G#] [G]
Well, how [A] could we have known our [D] building is really not so [Bm] hard to tell?
[G] Nah, nah, nah
You keep [A] adding stones
Soon [D] the water will be [Bm] lost in the well
[G] lost in the well
