Verse1:  
 
 C                              F 
 Baby's Black Balloon makes her fly 
 
C                        F 
 I almost fell into that hole in your life 
 
C                              F 
 And you're not thinking about tomorrow  
 
A                   C        F 
 Cause you were the same as me 
 
     G       C   F    C 
 But on your knees

Verse2: 
C                                  F 
 A thousand other boys could never reach you 
 
C                          F 
 How could I have been the one 
 
C                             F 
 I saw the world spin beneath you 
 
A                 C            F 
And scatter like ice from the spoon  
 
     G        C  
That was your womb 
 
 
Chorus1: 
 Am     G        F            C 
 Comin' down the world turned over 
 
     Am     G    F           C  
 And angels fall without you there 
 
     Am   G     F       C 
 And I go on as you get colder 
 
    Am      G         C 
 Or are you someone's prayer

Verse3:                                   
You know the lies they always told you                  
And the love you never knew                       
Lots of things they never showed you                       
That swallowed the light from the sun 
Inside your room, yeah 
 
Chorus 
 
 
C                             F   
And there's no time left for losing 
 
         C          F 
When you stand they fall 
 
 
Chorus 
 
 
 
 Am              G     F      C  
 Comin' down the years turned over 
 
     Am     G    F           C 
 And angels fall without you there 
 
     Am   G     F         C 
 And I go on to bring you home 
 
 Am  G            Am  G                Am 
 All because I'm, all because I'm, and I'll become 
 
      F             C 
 What you became to me
