   Em   F#m   G      D                  C                                    
   Eight miles high and when you touch down
    G                       D           C
   You'll find that it's stranger than known
   Em   F#m   G         D                     C  
   Signs in the street that say where you're going
   G                 D           C Em Am
   Are somewhere just being their own.

   Nowhere is there warmth to be found
   among those afraid of losing their ground
   Rain gray town known for its sound
   In places small faces unbound
                                
   Round the squares huddled in storms
   Some laughing some just shapeless forms
   Sidewalk scenes and black limousines
   Some living some standing alone
