At [E]overlooking t[A]he canyon, right [E]where I'm [A]descending, I swear I,
See my f[E]ormer glory, [A]still burning, it had [G]every intent o[A]f returning
[E]Ah...(o[A]h), a[Asus]h-ah, Ah[E]...(oh[A])
And [E]years of planning[A] the landing, to [E]prepare for jumping [A]the canyon
It's not [E]death-defying,[A] or cheering, it's the[G] thrill of clearing,[A] barely clearing
CHORUS:
[E]And if I se[A]e no [B]hope for [E]me, I [A]still see [B]hope for [E]you
In the [A]high-rise of [B]the mor[E]ning, the [A]exception that [B]proves my [E]rule
E A Asus E A (x2)
Ah...(oh), ah-ah, Ah...(oh) (x2)
Still I'm [E]tying up[A] loose ends, I tied them[E] to a chair to[A] defy them
To [E]protect and hide them, [A]untie them, these are[G] not the ones you[A] won't untie 'em
[E]Ah...(o[A]h), a[Asus]h-ah, Ah[E]...(oh[A])
And [E]now I'm jumping the[A] canyon, after[E] years of planning [A]and planning
It's a[E] monumental [A]challenge: a feeling you must [G]fight before you[A] start free-wheelin'
[E]And if I se[A]e no [B]hope for [E]me, I [A]still see [B]hope for [E]you
In the [A]wide eyes of [B]the mor[E]ning, the [A]exception that [B]proves my [E]rule
