Step out the front door like a ghost
into the fog where no one notices 
the contrast of white on white.
And in between the moon and you   
the angels get a better view
of the crumbling difference between 
wrong and right
I walk in the air between the rain, 
through myself and back again
Where?  I don't know
Maria says she's dying.  Through the
 door, I hear her crying
Why?  I don't know

G (riff)
Maria came from Nashville with a 
suitcase in her hand
She said she'd like to meet a boy 
who looks like Elvis
She walks along the edge of where 
the ocean meets the land
Just like she's walking on a wire in
 the circus
She parks her car outside of my 
house   Takes her clothes off,
Says she's close to understanding 
Jesus
She knows she's more than just a 
little misunderstood
She has trouble acting normal when 
she's nervous

          C          D            
    Round here we're carving out 
   Em     G/D
our names

    Round here we all look the 
    G/D
same

    Round here we talk just like 
 D

           Em             G/D
    But we sacrifice like lambs
          C          D      
    Round here she's slipping 
             Em       A  D        A
through my hands    /  /    Oh...

    Sleeping children got to run 
           A      G/D        D   
like the wind   Out of the

lightning dream

    Mama's little baby better get

herself in   Out of the lightning

G (riff)
She says, "It's only in my head."
She says, "Shhh...I know it's only 
in my head."
But the girl on the car in the 
parking lot
says: "Man, you should try to take a
 shot
Can't you see my walls are 
crumbling?"
Then she looks up at the building   
and she says she's thinking of 
jumping
She says she's tired of life;   she 
must be tired of something.

          C          D            
    Round here she's always on my 
Em    G/D

    Round here I got lots of time

you catch me if I'm falling
    Will you catch me 'cause I'm 
Em                 G/D
falling down round here

G (riff)
I said I'm under the gun round here
I'm innocent, I'm under the gun 
round here
I can't see nothing, nothing round 
here.

Here is what I've come up with for 
"Round Here" by Counting Crows.
I think it is right, but after 
downloading Mr. Jones form nevada 
and seeing
what I had left out, I'm not so 
sure, but here it is anyway for your
approval and revision:

Verse:

Step out the front door like a ghost
into the fog where no one notices
the contrast of white on white.
And in between the moon and you
the angels get a better view
of the crumbling difference between 
wrong and right.
I walk in the air between the rain
through myself and back again
Where?  I don't know
Maria says she's dying
through the door I hear her crying
Why?  I don't know

Chorus:

      C      D              
Round here we always stand up 
    Em     G

Sleeping children got to run like

out of the lightning dream

Mama's little baby better get 
herself in

out of the lightning


Verse:

She says It's only in my head
She says Shhh I know it's only in my
