( Am    Bm11/A ) 
High on the bell tower 
I took my view 
Over the downtowns 
On the avenues 

( Am    Bm11/A ) 
Where the streets are wide 
And the people thrive 
And it's further to fall down 
Cause you fly so high 

( Am    Bm11/A ) 
I've never seen such beauty 
I've never seen such clear skies 
I've never seen such high hopes 
I've never seen such tired eyes 

F7M  Am                  G 
 And I wish that I could be 
 		F7M 
 Everything you are 
 Am             G 
 Everything you are 

( Am    Bm11/A ) 
Down in the delta 
The city wakes 
Turns on the TV 
As the levy breaks 

( Am    Bm11/A ) 
Where the streets are burned 
From the hot summer sun 
And there's nowhere to run to 
When your time has come 

( Am    Bm11/A ) 
I've never seen such beauty 
I've never seen such clear skies 
I've never seen such high hopes 
I've never seen such tired eyes 

( Am    Bm11/A ) 
Loop the loops up piece by piece 
All that flashing all over me 
Took my pills and went to sleep 
Oh, and I sang myself to sleep 

F7M  Am                  G 
 And I wish that I could be 
 		F7M 
 Everything you are 
 Am             G 
 Everything you are 
F7M  Am                  G 
 And I wish that I could see 
                       F7M 
 The world the way you do 
     Am         G 
 As selfishly as you 
Oooh 

(solo 12x) Am    Bm11/A 

F7M  Am                  G 
 And I wish that I could be 
                F7M 
 Everything you are 
 Am             G 
 Everything you are 
F7M                      G 
 And I wish that I could stick 
                      F7M 
 My faith the way you do 
Am              G 
 As certainly as you 

F7M     Am                    G 
 Clear skies going to fall on you 
F7M     Am                    G 
 Clear skies going to fall on you 
F7M     Am                    G 
 Clear skies going to fall on you 
   F7M    Am       G 
On you, 	on you. 
F7M     Am                    G 
 Clear skies going to fall on you 
       F7M  Am    G 
Clear skies
