G Em Am C G
[Verse 1]
GYou did what you saw in the movies
EmSomeone put you under a spell
Am CIn some world it is always happening
GThe next morning, everything went to hell
[Verse 2]
GAnd I play back the tapes as often as I can
EmBut we weren't meant to have memories this long
Am CThe pictures degrade into snowflakes, dancing
GAny answer I hoped for is gone
[Instrumental]
G Em Am C G
[Verse 3]
GAnd that must be what drove them all crazy
EmThey were the first ones allowed to grow old
Am CThe spark goes, but the body keeps living
GYou kiss your children, but they just feel the cold
[Verse 4]
GAnd it just slipped away on one morning
EmAnd when they woke up they found it was gone
Am CThey still sang the songs and made marry
GBut deep down, they knew something was wrong
[Chorus 1]
GSo they called me up, said "it's not enough
C AmWe needed new things to feel
C DDead memories and the color of grief
AmWon't you help us to make it real?"
GWell, if you can take me when the mountains break
C AmAnd the sea swallows up the sky
C DYou can ride on me, I'll take you beyond belief
AmI will show you the reason why
[Solo]
G Em Am C G
[Verse 5]
GAnd in the best scene of the movie
EmI Am driving a car that won't stop
Am CDistracted for sure, fighting some psychic war
GWe all were too wasted to stop
[Verse 6]
GYou said you'd take me away on a starship
EmBut baby, why'd you have to wait so long?
AmIn the transept, in the apse
CIn a selfish moment's lapse
GI fell asleep waiting for that far-off song
[Chorus 2]
G Gmaj7So they gave it up, said "it's all too much
C AmI can't take it if this is how it feels"
C DGot to pay the piper, hire another writer
AmTo tell you what is real
G Gmaj7But if you could take me when the mountains break
C AmAnd the sky spells satanic designs
C DYou can call me up, I will call your bluff
AmAnd you can finally lose your mind
[Instrumental]
G D Gsus4 G Gsus2 G Am C Am C
[Verse 7]
G D I was warned of all this
Gsus4 GDidn't listen, didn't listen
Gsus2 GPlease wake up, I need to talk to you right now
Am C Am C
[Verse 8]
G D I got bored of all this
Gsus4 GAnd didn't listen, didn't listen
Gsus2 G Am C Am CMuttering BLID to get me through the next twelve minutes
[Verse 9]
G D Gsus4 I caught a glimpse of myself and fell right in
GI fell right in
Gsus2 GDidn't know that there was only one way out
Am C (Stage rest)
Am C (No, stage left)
Am C (No, stage right)
Am C (No, stage left)
Am C (No, stage right)
Am C (No, stage left)
Am C (No, stage right)
Am C Am C Am C
[Outro]

CAnd the earth fell out from under me
AmAnd the earth fell out from under me
CAnd the earth fell out from under me

CAnd the earth fell out from under me
AmAnd the earth fell out from under me
CAnd the earth fell out from under me
AmAnd the earth fell out from under me

AmAnd the earth fell out from under me (Earth fell out from under me)
CAnd the earth fell out from under me (Earth fell out from under me)
AmAnd the earth fell out from under me (Earth fell out from under me)
CAnd the earth fell out from under me (Earth fell out from under me)
