Eight miles high and when you touch down
-6*     -6*  6   -5    -6*   -5  5*    5
You'll find that it's stran-ger than known
-5    5*  -4   -4    -5
Signs in the street that 
-5    4*    -3   4*  4*
say where you're go-ing
-6*  -6*  6 -5 -6* -6* -5   5*    4
Are some-where just be-ing their own

|2-2*…-2*|3-2*…3| 

Nowhere is there warmth to be found
Among those afraid of losing their ground
Rain gray town known for its sound
In places small faces unbound


Round the squares huddled in storms
Some laughing some just shapeless forms
Sidewalk scenes and black limousines
Some living, some standing alone

Play on a harmonica— watch which holes to blow & draw, with sound
