Intro:
Bm   F#   E  x2

Verse:

Bm             F#                      E
Its a long way down above the two tone town


And its not funny when you're stuck in the middle

Bm                F#                E
Im coming up for air, i could be anywhere


It makes no difference when you live in a puddle

Chorus:

G2                  D
Now that i see you, how can i breath?

        A                       F#
When my hearts in my mouth, and not on my sleeve

       G2                 D                        A
Better run little rabbit, back to your hole in the ground

F#             G2   F#                 E
Its a long way down     its a long way down


Verse 2:
The people look so small, sliding off the wall
Getting dizzy as the fall in the gutter
I watch the seagull swooping past the steeple
Crying for his dinner as he shits on the sinners

Bridge:

G  D      A           F#  G               D            A
Mama, and eye for and eye, you said you'd never pick a side

G  D    A            F#  G
Papa im too young to die, you'll never take, you're never taking me alive
