( Am    Bm11/A )
High on the bell tower
I took my view
Over the downtowns
On the avenues

( Am    Bm11/A )
Where the streets are wide
And the people thrive
And it's further to fall down
Cause you fly so high

( Am    Bm11/A )
I've never seen such beauty
I've never seen such clear skies
I've never seen such high hopes
I've never seen such tired eyes

F7M/C  Am                  G
 And I wish that I could be
 		F7M/C
 Everything you are
 Am             G
 Everything you are

( Am    Bm11/A )
Down in the delta
The city wakes
Turns on the TV
As the levy breaks

( Am    Bm11/A )
Where the streets are burned
From the hot summer sun
And there's nowhere to run to
When your time has come

( Am    Bm11/A )
I've never seen such beauty
I've never seen such clear skies
I've never seen such high hopes
I've never seen such tired eyes

( Am    Bm11/A )
Loop the loops up piece by piece
All that flashing all over me
Took my pills and went to sleep
Oh, and I sang myself to sleep

F7M/C  Am                  G
 And I wish that I could be
 		F7M/C
 Everything you are
 Am             G
 Everything you are
F7M/C  Am                  G
 And I wish that I could see
                       F7M
 The world the way you do
     Am         G
 As selfishly as you
Oooh

Solo 12x: Am    Bm11/A

F7M/C  Am                  G
 And I wish that I could be
                F7M/C
 Everything you are
 Am             G
 Everything you are
F7M/C                      G
 And I wish that I could stick
                      F7M
 My faith the way you do
Am              G
 As certainly as you

F7M/C     Am                    G
 Clear skies going to fall on you
F7M/C     Am                    G
 Clear skies going to fall on you
F7M/C     Am                    G
 Clear skies going to fall on you
   F7M/C    Am       G
On you, 	on you.
F7M/C     Am                    G
 Clear skies going to fall on you
       F7M/C  Am    G
Clear skies
