THEN:
Dsus2 G5* A# [2x] C
[Verse 1]
Dsus2 A# G5* A# C
Hold on slow down again from the top now and tell me everything
Dsus2
I know I've been gone for what seems like forever
A# G5* A# C
But I'm here now waiting
Dsus2
To convince you that I'm not a ghost or a stranger
A# G5* A# C
But closer than you think
Dsus2
She said, "Just go on to what you
Pretend is your life but
A# G5* A# C
Please don't die on me"
[Refrain]
A# Dsus2
Wings won't take me
A# Dsus2
Heights don't phase me
A#
So take a step
G5*
But don't look down
A# C
Take a step
[Chorus]
Dsus2 G5* A#
Now I'm standing on the rooftop ready to fall
Dsus2 G5* A#
I think I'm at the edge now but I could be wrong
Dsus2 G5* A# Dsus2 G5* A# C
I'm standing on the rooftop ready to fall
[Verse 2]
Perpetual motion the image won't focus
A blur is all that's seen
But here in this moment like the eye of the storm
It all came clear to me
I found a shoulder to lean on
An infallible reason to live all by itself
I took one last look from the heights that I once loved
And then I ran like hell
[Refrain]
A# Dsus2
Wings won't take me
A# Dsus2
Heights don't phase me
A#
So take a step
G5*
But don't look down
A# C
Take a step
[Chorus]
Dsus2 G5* A#
Now I'm standing on the rooftop ready to fall
Dsus2 G5* A#
I think I'm at the edge now but I could be wrong
Dsus2 G5* A# Dsus2 G5* A#
I'm standing on the rooftop ready to fall
[Coda]
C
I count the times that I've been sorry
A#
I know, I know
C
Now my compassion slowly drowns
A#
I know, I know
C
If there's a time these walls could guard you
A#
I know, I know
C
Then let that time be right now
[Then]
