Verse I
D A
(9 Has our conscience shown?
bars) Has the sweet breeze blown?
Has all the kindness gone?
Hope still lingers on.
I drink myself of newfound pity
Sitting alone in New York City.
And I don't know why.
Verse II
D A
Are we listening?
Hymns of offering
Have we eyes to see
That love is gathering?
A
All the words that I've been reading
Have now started the act of bleeding
G
Into one....Into one.
CHORUS
D A
So I walk upon high
G
And I step to the edge
D
To see my world below.
A
And I laugh at myself
C
While the tears roll down.
G
'Cause it's the world I know.
D
It's the world I know.
VERSE III
I drink myself of newfound pity
Sittin alone in New York City.
And I don't know why.
Don't know why.
CHORUS
So I walk upon high
And I step to the edge
to see my world below.
And I laugh at myself
While the tears roll down.
'Cause it's the world I know.
It's the world I know.x2
at the end when the symphony kicks in, Childress (i think) is
arpeggiating a D, and throwing in the 4th sometimes (Dsus4)
and the song ends on a Dsus4...
