Round Here

Cadd9 Dsus4

1. Step out the front door like a ghost into the fog

Where no one notices the contrast of white on white

Cadd9 Dsus4

And in between the moon and you the angels get a better view

Of the crumbling difference between wrong and right

Cadd9 Dsus4

I walk in the air between the rain through myself and back again

Where? I dont know

Maria says shes dying through the door I hear her crying

Why? I dont know

R: Round here we always stand up straight

Round here something radiates

2. Maria came from nashville with a suitcase in her hand

She said shed like to meet a boy who looks like elvis

She walks along the edge of where the ocean meets the land

Just like shes walking on a wire in the circus

She parks her car outside of my house

Takes her clothes off

Says shes close to understanding jesus

She knows shes more than just a little misunderstood

She has trouble acting normal when shes nervous

R: Round here were carving out our names

Round here we all look the same

Round here we talk just like lions

But we sacrifice like lambs

Round here shes slipping through my hands
