Am E
there's anthrax in the envelope i opened in my dream
G F C E/B
the sky is red and little kids are running, screaming in the street
Am E
i tried to run and save them but i had molasses feet
G F C E/B
i keep having nightmares and i'm scared to go to sleep
Chorus:
Am E
if you fall in i'll jump down
G F C
and touch your face while we're both sinking
E/B
(stinking thinking) we won't
Am E
drown, you are my friend
G F
and what we're doing's too important
C E/B
for our lives to end quite yet
Am F E Am
in montreal i got so mad, someone broke into the van
stole my guitar and aaron's bag
then we turned on cnn, watched the towers fall again
and realized that our lives aren't so bad
Am F E Am
this is just a test take it with love and you will pass
you will be rewarded if you do your very best
nothing ever goes as planned so don't take anything for granted
if you do the world will kick your ass
Am F E Am
the air is filled with computers and carpets
skin and bones and telephones and file cabinets
coke machines, firemen, landing gear, and cement
they say that it's okay but i say don't breathe in
Am F E Am
the air is filled with computers and carpets
skin and bones and telephones and file cabinets
coke machines, firemen, landing gear, and cement
they say that it's okay but i say don't breathe that shit in
Solo: Am F E Am
Am E
an angel named gabriel is watching over you
G F C E/B
he was a friend mistreated now he's dead so say you're sorry to him
Am E
when you say your prayers tonight if you make amends
G F C E/B
the gates to heaven here on earth will open up again
Repeat Chorus, and end on C.
