Upside Looking Down
|Abadd9 |Dbadd9 |Abadd9 |Dbadd9 |
Abadd9 Dbadd9 Abadd9 Ebsus2
Well, you came on like some blazing supernova
Abadd9 Dbadd9 Ebsus4
With a flame that burned so brightly in the sky
Bbm9 Dbadd9 Bbm11 Dbadd9
Then you woke up and your long white night was over
Bbm11 Db Abadd9 Ab/Eb Eb
And you cursed the world that dared to pass you by
Abadd9 Dbadd9 Abadd9 Ebsus2
So now you blame the ones who love you for your sorrows
Abadd9 Dbadd9 Ebsus4 Eb
Dealing dirty while you steal the higher ground
Bbm9 Dbadd9 Bbm9 Dbadd9
But you cheated and you lied and life took you for a ride
Bbm9 Dbadd9 Abadd9 Ebsus4 Eb7
Now youâ??re standing on the upside looking down
Db F7sus4/C
And O, the hero in disguise
Db
Believing his own alibis
Eb7sus4 Eb7 Edim Db/F
You run so scared, youâ??re standing still
Db
I know you are, I know you will
Abadd9 Dbadd9 Abadd9 Eb7
Be the first to call it quits and run for cover
Abadd9 Dbadd9 Ebsus4
While your little world is crumbling all around
Bbm11 Db Bbm9 Db
But you punked out on yourself, you canâ??t blame nobody else
Bbm9 Db Abadd9 Ebsus4 Eb7
And now that youâ??re standing on the upside looking down
|Fadd9 |Bbadd9 |Fmaj7 |C |
|Fadd9 |Bbadd9 |Csus4 |C |
|Gm7 |Bbadd9 |F |Bbadd9 |
|Gm7 |Bbadd9 |F | C |
Db F7sus4/C
And O, the heartache of the thief
Db
Strung out on his own stash of grief
Eb7sus4 Eb7 Edim Db/F
A line for you, a flake for me
Db
But now itâ??s ancient history
Abadd9 Dbadd9 Abadd9 Eb7
As the sky is turning black and glassing over
Abadd9 Dbadd9 Ebsus4
As you drift so high above the lights of town
Bbm9 Dbadd9 Bbm9 Dbadd9
All at once it seems so clear, you can see it all from here
Bbm9 Dbadd9 Abadd9 Eb7
When youâ??re standing on the upside looking down
|Abadd9 |Dbadd9 |Abadd9 |Dbadd9 |
