[Intro]
E C#m F#m A  x2


[Verse 1]
E                  C#m              F#m A
Watch the feathers fly up from your coat
               E    C#m          F#m  A
You're like an angel   I need an angel
  E               C#m              F#m
I get so weighted down somehow you float
A            E       C#m
  Across the pavement
           F#m
Across the pavement
           A
I've been stuck to so long


[Chorus 1]
E
  And an ugly world suddenly
C#m             A
   Seems almost beautiful now
E
  Every drunken word is poetry
C#m                  A
   And weeds turn to flowers somehow
E
  Up against the wind you and me
C#m                A
   It don't matter where we blow to
E
  Even in this dark I can see
C#m             A
everything I've lost inside you
F#m     G#m   A
Now splashing down every
 C#m             E
street I used to bleed in
           F#m       G#m  A
With every doubt dripping out
        C#m
This is where it's all
     B
been leading to tonight


[Verse 2]
  E                C#m              F#m  A
Tonight I say it's like the city is ours
             E      C#m              F#m    A
You say it's nowhere   I'm fine with nowhere
 E             C#m                 F#m A
Smile as you exhale up toward the stars
             E       C#m
And blow the dust out
             F#m           A
And blow the dust across a sea of concrete


[Chorus 2]
E
  And an ugly world suddenly
C#m             A
   Seems almost beautiful now
E
  Every drunken word is poetry
C#m                  A
   And weeds turn to flowers somehow
E
  Up against the wind you and me
C#m                A
   It don't matter where we blow to
E
  Even in this dark I can see
C#m             A
everything I've lost inside you
F#m     G#m   A
Now splashing down every
 C#m             E
street I used to bleed in
           F#m       G#m  A
With every doubt dripping out
        C#m
This is where it's all
     B
been leading to tonight


[Instrumental]
E C#m E A  x3


[Bridge]
B                C#m              A E
  And there's no place I'd rather be
B              C#m              A E
  Than on this sidewalk you and me
B                  C#m
  We could have it all
             A
soaking in a summer night
             E                  E
While you're biting at raindrops


[Chorus 3]
E
  And an ugly world suddenly
C#m             A
   Seems almost beautiful now
E
  Every drunken word is poetry
C#m                  A
   And weeds turn to flowers somehow
E
  Up against the wind you and me
C#m                A
   It don't matter where we blow to
E
  Even in this dark I can see
C#m             A              E
everything I've lost inside you
