Verse: (with rhythm figure 1)

D                              G

Baby's black balloon makes her fly

D                       G

I almost fell into that hole in your life

D                               G

And you're not thinking about tomorrow

       (riff 1)

'cause you were the same as me

             E    D(type2)

But on your knees



D-G-D-G



(verse)

A thousand other boys could never reach you

How could I have been the one

I saw the world spin beneath you

And scatter like ice from the spoon

That was your womb



Chorus:

B      A        G            D

Comin' down the world turned over

    B      A        G       D

And angels fall without you there

    B    A     G       D

And I go on as you get colder

   G       A

Or are you someone's prayer



D-G-D-G



(verse)

You know the lies they always told you

And the love you never knew

What's the things they never showed you

That swallowed the light from the sun

Inside your room



(chorus)

Comin' down the world turned over

And angels fall without you there

And I go on as you get colder



Bridge:

F#-G-B-A

F#-G B-A-G G-G-F#-E   (slide up to G)

F#            G             A

And there's no time left for losin'

When you stand they fall



(chorus)

Comin' down the world turned over

And angels fall without you there

And I go on as you get colder

All because I'm



(chorus)

Comin' down the years turn over

And angels fall without you there

And I'll go on to bring you home

All because I'm



F

All because I'm

E

And I'll become

G                  D

What you became to me
