(NB During the verses, the guitar plays the riff shown - the chords
   marked are implied by the keyboards and bass. However, during the
   chorus, the guitar plays the chords as shown.
   Note also the funky "Sleeping children.." bit. On the album, there
   is definitely a chord change implied from A to G (by the wah-wah 
   guitar and possibly the keyboards) but the main guitar and bass 
   play the same thing under both chords, which kind of confuses the
   ear. You can approximate what's happening like this


   A                           G/A
E|---------------------------|----------------------------|

C (riff)                       D
Step out the front door like a ghost
                          Em                      G/D
into the fog where no one notices the contrast of white on white.
     C                                D 
And in between the moon and you   the angels get a better view
       Em                           G/D
of the crumbling difference between wrong and right
       C                            D      
I walk in the air between the rain, through myself and back again
Em                 G/D
Where?  I don't know
      C                              D  
Maria says she's dying.  Through the door, I hear her crying
      Em           G/D
Why?  I don't know       

          C       D               Em       G/D
    Round here we always stand up straight
          C    D             Em   G/D
    Round here something radiates 

Maria came from Nashville with a suitcase in her hand
She said she'd like to meet a boy who looks like Elvis
She walks along the edge of where the ocean meets the land
Just like she's walking on a wire in the circus
She parks her car outside of my house   Takes her clothes off,
Says she's close to understanding Jesus
She knows she's more than just a little misunderstood
She has trouble acting normal when she's nervous

          C          D               Em     G/D
    Round here we're carving out our names
          C    D               Em    G/D
    Round here we all look the same
          C                      D
    Round here we talk just like lions
           Em             G/D
    But we sacrifice like lambs
          C          D                   Em       A  D        A
    Round here she's slipping through my hands    /  /    Oh...

    G/A                                   A      G/A                  A
    Sleeping children got to run like the wind   Out of the lightning dream
    G/A                                   A    C          D
    Mama's little baby better get herself in   Out of the lightning

She says, "It's only in my head."
She says, "Shhh...I know it's only in my head."
But the girl on the car in the parking lot
says: "Man, you should try to take a shot
Can't you see my walls are crumbling?"
Then she looks up at the building she says she's thinking of jumping
She says she's tired of life; she must be tired of something.

          C          D            Em    G/D
    Round here she's always on my mind
          C    D             Em    G/D
    Round here I got lots of time
          C                            D
    Round here we're never sent to bed early
      Em            G/D
    Nobody makes us wait
          C               D         Em        G/D
    Round here we stay up very very very very late


                C        D              Em    G/D
    I can't see nothing, nothing around here
                        C                            D
    You catch me if I'm falling, you catch me if I'm falling
                                 Em                 G/D
    Will you catch me 'cause I'm falling down round here


I said I'm under the gun round here
I'm innocent, I'm under the gun round here
I can't see nothing, nothing round here.
