VERSE:

N.C.                D,  D/F#, Emin9(no 5), D
    I sent a picture 
                      D,  D/F#, Emin9(no 5), D
To my very best friend                                                     
                                                 Em7
                      Em7         G           E --0--
And in the picture was me and my car          B --0-- 
      D D/F#, Emin9(no 5), D                  G --0--
Had another   dead        end                 D --0--
        Em7                                   A --2--
If you wanna come and find me                 E --0---

I can leave you a sign
     G
My heart's a little heavy
                           D, D/F#, Emin9(no 5), D
But the rest of me is well,  fine     oh      fine

VERSE:

    I get the picture
                    D,  D/F#, Emin9(no 5), D
Of reaping what I sow
                                  Em7         G
Hey, oh it's getting clearer that all that I love

Uh, Every now and then it gets too dark to see
Too dark to see just what's in front of me
Every now and then I fall off the edge, right off the ledge
Heels over head
And I'm giving in from trying
Am I really falling or flying?
Am I really living or dying?
Am I really falling,
             A
Falling or flying?


OUTRO: Play this over and over until the end
        D    D/F#  Emin9(no 5)   D

I'm falling up now
Hey, I'm falling up now
That's right
I'm falling up now
I'm falling up c'mon c'mon
Send me a picture 
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
From everywhere that you've been
Hey, and then honey c'mon, c'mon, c'mon
And sing it like a polaroid
Yeah-aaah  oh oh
And I'm falling up now
