4   5    -4  -4
We won't get far
 5 -4   -4  4  -3 -3 -3” -3 
Flying circles inside a jar
  4    4   5  -4   -4
Cause the air we breathe
4   5  -4    -4   4   -3    -3  -3”  -3
Is thinning with the words that we speak
 
-3”  4  4 -3” 3 2
That we speeeeeak
-3”  4  4 -3” 3 2
You and meeeeeeee
(x2)
 
 4      5  -4  -4
You're on the floor
  5 -4  -4   4     -3 -3   -3”  -3
Fearful of what's outside your door
 4   4    5   -4   -4 
But the codes and keys
 4    4     4  5   -4
They can’t protect you
 -4   4    -3  -3” -3 -3” -3
From the pangs of  jealousy
 
-3” -3”   4  -5 -4 4 -3”
And when you screeeeeam
-3”   -5  -5 -4 4 -3”
Love, you seeeeeeeem
-3”   -5  -5 -4 4 -3”
Like a chiiiiiiiiild
-4  -5     -5   6  -5  -6
Throwing stones at the sky
-3”  -3”  4    -5   -4  4   -3”
But when they fall back to earth
-4 -4 -5   -5   -4 -4 4   -3”
As minor chords of major works
-4  -4 -5    -5  -4 -4 4   -3”
In separate rooms a single life
-4 -5  -5
We are one
-5  6  -5 -6
We are alive
 4 -4  4 6 4 3
We are aliiive (x3)
-3  4  -3 4
We are alive
