.::info
this song is originally played by a piano and so it doesn't
sound the same miserable way when played by a single guitar.
anyway i think that the chords a quite right. if you have
any suggestions mail me at [email protected].

at 'D#var1/D#var2' play the first 2/4 D#var1 and the other
2/4 D#var2.


.::sound
playing this song on a single acoustic guitar sounds quite
boring. so i tried out my electric guitar with an effect
called 'cathedral'. this effect has a very strong reverb
and makes the guitar sound like a violin. if you have an
FX-board look for a sound like this.


.::song
B                 G#             D#             D#
do you hear the jetplane yawning miles across the sky?
         B                              G#
hear the garbage truck back down the boulevard setting of the
  D#             D#var
car alarms as it passes by.
B                 G#             D#             D#
do you hear the static of one thousand detuned radios?
           B                     G#                    D#
shut the window, love. keep the world outside. i don't want
             D#var
to think about anyone
        B                     G#                        D#
but the footsteps are getting louder, drowning out the sound
                  D#
of the rain as it knocks on the windowsill
        B                              G#
i'm not answering the phone let it ring lately i've been
D#             D#var
feeling like a falling bomb
    B                 G#             D#       D#var
the ground is getting closer and the sky - is falling
B              G#              D#              D#
