[Verse 1]:

Bb    G
Be my eyes
Cm            Ab
Paint colours bright
   Eb           Bb
As day turns to night
Cm          G
Baby, be my eyes


[Verse 2]:
G
Tell me, Dear
         Cm              Ab
Was this freedom left to share
        Eb              Bb
Was the cost for all to bare
     Cm           G
Tell me, tell me, Dear


[Pre-Chorus]:
           Cm
'Cause out here
   Ab              Eb
We dance along the rim
       Bb            Cm
Though non of us can swim
        Ab                  Eb  Bb
Like we know the deep we`re in


[Chorus]:
    Cm
And I,
  Ab               Eb
I feel like I felt before
   Bb                Cm  Ab  Eb  Bb
We live on a slanted floor

[Pre-Chorus]:
    Cm
And so
        Ab                Eb
Tell me all the things we know
   Bb           Cm    Ab  Eb  Bb
Is heaven still above


[Chorus]:
    Cm
And I,
  Ab               Eb
I feel like I felt before
   Bb                Cm  Ab   Eb  Bb
We live on a slanted floor, flooor
