Is my world not falling down
          A     Bm     Amaj7    Bm
          I’m in pieces on the ground
            NC        Bm
        And my eyes aren’t open
                                                A   Bm  Amaj7  Bm (like intro)
        And I’m standing on my knees

(chorus)
  A     E                     Bm
But if crying and holding on
        D                        Bm
And flying on the ground is wrong
               A                 A+
Then I’m sorry to let you down
        D
But you’re from
 Bm
My side of town
           A            Bm   Amaj7   Bm
And I’ll miss you
          A          Bm    Amaj7    Bm
        Turn me up or turn me down
           A        Bm   Amaj7     Bm
        Turn me off or turn me ‘round
            Bm
        I wish I could have met you in a place
                                        A Bm Amaj7 Bm
        Where we both belong

(chorus) (on last line hold on A, omit Bm, Amaj7 and Bm;
                             go straight from A to bridge)


BRIDGE:
        F           G                Em         Am
Sometimes I feel like I’m just a helpless child
            F            G           C
Sometimes I feel like a king
  E
But, baby
   Amaj7           Bm       Amaj7
Since I have changed
   Bm                 Amaj7   D (tap guitar top 2x w/finger)  D (repeat taps)
I can’t take nothing home

           A     Bm        Amaj7   Bm
        City lights at a country fair
           A       Bm         Amaj7     Bm
        Never shine but always glare
              A      Bm
        If I’m bright enough to see you
                                A         Bm    Amaj7   Bm
        You’re just too dark to care
