When I Fall Chords

Capo 2nd fret

Standard (EADGBE)

Intro

D G A Bm D/F♯ G

 I look straight in the Dwindow,G A try not to look Bmbelow D/F♯ G

 Pretend I'm not Dup here,G A I try counting sEheep G

The sheep seem to shower, off this office tower

It's 9.8 straight down, I can't stop my knees.

Chorus

 I wish I could fBmly, from this Abuilding, from this Ewall. G

 And if I should Bmtry, would you Acatch me, if I fEall. G

My hands clench the squeegee, a seclar rosary

Hang onto your wallet, hand onto your rings.

I can't look below me, something might throw me.

I curse at the windstorms, that October brings.

I look in the boardroom, a modern Pharaoh's tomb.

I'd gladly swap places, if they care to dive

They line up at the window, peer down into limbo

Frightened of jumping, in case they survive.

 And I wish I could sGtep, from this Ascaffold,

 Onto Bmsoft green D/F♯grass and Eshopping Gmalls,

 And Gbed, and my Afamily, and my Bmpastor and my AgrandfaDther

 Whose EdeadG.

Look straight in the mirror, watch it come clearer

I look like a painter, behind all the grease.

But painting's creating, and I'm just erasing

A crystal clear canvas, is my masterpiece.

Chorus x2

If I fall... (repeat)
