[Verse 1]
Em    F#m   G   D                  C
Eight miles high and when you touch down
G                     D             C
 You'll find that it's stranger than known
Em    F#m   G      D                     C
Signs in the street that say where you're going
G             D                C
 Are somewhere just being their own
Em F#m G F#m

[Verse 2]
Em F#m  G D                  C
Nowhere is there warmth to be found
G             D               C
 Among those afraid of losing their ground
Em   F#m  G   D             C
Rain gray town known for its sound
G         D              C    Em
 In places small faces unbound

[Verse 3]
Em    F#m G      D          C
Round the squares huddled in storms
G             D               C
 Some laughing some just shapeless forms
Em  F#m  G     D            C
Sidewalk scenes and black limousines
G            D               C
 Some living, some standing alone

[Solo 3]
