There have been many other version's of this song submitted
to the olga but i have felt that a lot of them have been a bit thin
or not very clear. Here is my attempt, if anyone has any problems
don't hesitate in E-mailing me, my address is at the bottom of the page.

e||-------5----3----------5-----3---------3----------|| B||*3-------------3----------------3----------------*|| G||--------------------------------------------------|| D||--------------------------------------------------|| A||*------------------------------------------------*|| E||--------------------------------------------------||
[C(AddD)] Step out the front door like a [D]ghost
into the fog where no-one [Em7]notices
the contrast of w[G]hite on white.
And in in betw[C(AddD)]een the moon and you
ang[D]els get a better view
of the c[Em7]rumbling difference between w[G]rong and right.
I walk i[C(AddD)]n the air between the rain
[D]through myself and back again.
[Em7]Where? I don't know.[G]
[C(AddD)] Maria says she's dying.
Through the door I h[D]ear her crying?
Why? I [Em7]don't know[G]
Round here[C] we al[D]ways stand up straight[Em] [G]
Round here[C], some[D]thing radiates.[Em] [G]
M[C(AddD)]aria came from nashville with a [D]suitcase in her hand
She said she'd l[Em7]ike to meet a boy who looks like [G]elvis
S[C(AddD)]he walks along the edge where the [D]ocean meets the land
just like she's [Em7]walking on a wire in the circu[G]s
She [C(AddD)]parks her car outside of my house[D]
takes her clothes off,
[Em7]She say's she's close to understanding [G]Jesus
She knows she's m[C(AddD)]ore than just a little misu[D]nderstood
She has [Em7]trouble acting normal when shes [G]nervous
Round h[C]ere we're c[D]arving out our n[Em]ames[G]
Round h[C]ere we all [D]look the sam[Em]e[G]
Round here[C] we talk just like lions[D]
But we s[Em]acarifice like lambs[G]
Round here[C] she's slippi[D]ng through my han[Em]ds
[A] [D] [G] [A] [G]
[A] Sle[Am7]eping children be[D7/A]tter run like the wi[A]nd[G] [A]
[Am7]Out of the l[D7]ightning dream[A] [G] [A]
Ma[Am7]ma's little baby [D7/A]better get herself[A] in[G] [A]
O[C]ut of the l[D]ightning
She s[C(AddD)]ays, "I[D]t's only in [Em7]my head.&q[G]uot;
She s[C(AddD)]ays, "shh...I know i[D]t's only in[Em7] my hea[G]d."
But the [C(AddD)]girl on the street by the parking lot
says:&[D]quot;Man, you should try to Take a shot
[Em7]Can't you see my walls are crumbling?&[G]quot;
Then she [C(AddD)]looks up at the building
Say's she's th[D]inking of jumping
She says she's t[Em7]ired of life;
She must be ti[G]red of something.
Round here[C] she's al[D]ways on my mi[Em]nd[G]
Round here[CD] I got lots of t[Em]ime[G]
Round here[C] we're never sent to bed ear[D]ly
Man, no[Em]body makes us wai[G]t
round here[C] we stay up [D]very, very, [Em]very, very la[G]te.
I can't see no[C]thin', noth[D]in'
Around he[Em]re
[G] You catch me if i'm f[C]alling,
You catch me if i'm f[D]alling,
Will you catch me cause i'm f[Em]alling down on you
[G] I said i'm u[C(AddD)]nder the gun[D]
around [Em7]here [G]
Oh, man I said i'm [C(AddD)]under the gun[D]
Around h[Em7]ere
[G] And I can't see nothin',[C(AddD)]
nothi[D]n'
Round he[Em]re.
And that is basically it. You'll have to suss out the rythm yourself
but apart from that it's all there. ENJOY.
