G (riff)
Step out the front door like a ghost
into the fog where no one notices the contrast of white on white.
And in between the moon and you the angels get a better view
of the crumbling difference between wrong and right
I walk in the air between the rain, through myself and back again
Where? I don't know
Maria says she's dying. Through the door, I hear her crying
Why? I don't know
C D Em G/D
Round here we always stand up straight
C D Em G/D
Round here something radiates
G (riff)
Maria came from Nashville with a suitcase in her hand
She said she'd like to meet a boy who looks like Elvis
She walks along the edge of where the ocean meets the land
Just like she's walking on a wire in the circus
She parks her car outside of my house Takes her clothes off,
Says she's close to understanding Jesus
She knows she's more than just a little misunderstood
She has trouble acting normal when she's nervous
C D Em G/D
Round here we're carving out our names
C D Em G/D
Round here we all look the same
C D
Round here we talk just like lions
Em G/D
But we sacrifice like lambs
C D Em A D A
Round here she's slipping through my hands / / Oh...
G/D D A G/D D A
Sleeping children got to run like the wind Out of the lightning dream
G/D D A G/D D
Mama's little baby better get herself in Out of the lightning
G (riff)
She says, "It's only in my head."
She says, "Shhh...I know it's only in my head."
But the girl on the car in the parking lot
says: "Man, you should try to take a shot
Can't you see my walls are crumbling?"
Then she looks up at the building and she says she's thinking of jumping
She says she's tired of life; she must be tired of something.
C D Em G/D
Round here she's always on my mind
C D Em G/D
Round here I got lots of time
C D
Round here we're never sent to bed early
Em G/D
Nobody makes us wait
C D Em G/D
Round here we stay up very very very very late
C D Em G/D
I can't see nothing, nothing around here
C D
You catch me if I'm falling, you catch me if I'm falling
Em G/D
Will you catch me 'cause I'm falling down round here
G (riff)
I said I'm under the gun round here
I'm innocent, I'm under the gun round here
I can't see nothing, nothing round here.
