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
She said, "Just [Dsus2]go on to what you
Pretend is your life but
A# G5 A# C
Please don't die on me"
Refrain:
[A#]Wings won't take [Dsus2]me
[A#]Heights don't phase [Dsus2]me
So take a s[A#]tep
G5
But don't look down
Take a step[A#][C]
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:
Wings won't take me
Heights don't phase me
So take a step
But don't look down
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
