Round Here Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[G][G][G][G]

[Verse 1]
[G]Step out the front door like a gho[D]st
Into the fog where no one noti[Em]ces
The contrast of [G]white on white
And in bet[C]ween the moon and you
The [D]angels get a better view
Of the crumbl[Em]ing difference
between wrong [G]and right

[Pre-chorus 1]
Well, I walk [C]in the air between the rain
Through [D]myself and back again
[Em]Where? I don't [G]know
Maria [C]says she's dying
Through the door, I [D]hear her crying
Why? I [Em]don't [G]know

[Chorus 1]
'Round [C]here, we [D]always stand up [Em]straight[G]
'Round [C]here, [D]something radi[Em]ates[G]

[Verse 2]
Maria [C]came from Nashville
with a suit[D]case in her hand
She said she'd [Em]like to meet a boy
who looks like [G]Elvis
And she [C]walks along the edge
of where the [D]ocean meets the land
Just like she's [Em]walking on a wire
in the [G]circus

[Pre-chorus 2]
She parks [C]her car outside of my house
[D]and takes her clothes off
[Em]Says she's close to understanding [G]Jesus
And she [C]knows she's more
than just a little mis[D]understood
She has troub[Em]le acting normal
when she's [G]nervous

[Chorus 2]
'Round [C]here, we're [D]carving out our [Em]names[G]
'Round [C]here, [D]we all look the [Em]same[G]
'Round [C]here, we talk just like [D]lions
But we [Em]sacrifice like [G]lambs
[C]'Round here,
she's [D]slipping through my [Em]hands
[A]Run[D][G]

[Bridge 1]
[A]Sle[Am]eping children bet[D]ter run like
[A]the wind
[Am]Out of the l[D]ightning d[A]ream
[Am]Mama's little baby [D]better get her[A]self
[C]Out of the [D]lightning

[Verse 3]
[C]She says, "It's onl[D]y in my hea[Em]d"
[G]
She says, [C]"Shh, I know it's [D]only in my [Em]head"
[G]

[Pre-chorus 3]
But the [C]girl on the car in the parking lot
Says, [D]"Man, you should try to take a shot
[Em]Can't you see my walls are crumbl[G]ing?"
Then she looks [C]up at the building
Says she's think[D]ing of jumping
She says she's [Em]tired of life
She must be [G]tired of something

[Chorus 3]
'Round [C]here, she's [D]always on my [Em]mind[G]
'Round [C]here, hey man, [D]I got lots of t[Em]ime[G]
'Round [C]here, we're never sent to bed [D]early
And [Em]nobody makes us [G]wait
'Round [C]here we stay up [D]very, very,
[Em]very, very late, [G]I...
I can't see no[C]thing, no[D]thing
[Em]Around [G]here
You catch me if I'm [C]falling
You catch me if I'm [D]falling
Will you catch me
because [Em]I'm falling down on [G]here

[Outro 1]
I said I'm [C]un der the [D]gun
[Em]'Round [G]here
Oh man I said I'm [C]under the [D]gun
[Em]'Round [G]here
And I can't see [C]nothin', no[D]thin'
'Round [Em]here
