Lyrics and chords:

Intro: D, F#m, C, E minorEm


D MajorD            F# minorF#m
 Theres traffic in the sky
         C majorC            E minorEm
 And it doesn't seem to be getting much better
           D MajorD
 Theres kids playing games on the pavement
     F# minorF#m           C majorC
 Drawing waves on the pavement mm-hm
         E minorEm            D MajorD
 Shadows of the planes on the pavement mm-hm
             F# minorF#m
 It's enough to make me cry
         C majorC                E minorEm
 But that don't seem like it would make it feel better
        D MajorD
 Maybe it's a dream and if i scream
     F# minorF#m
 It will burst at the seams
    C majorC             E minorEm
 This whole place will fall into pieces
         A augmentedA  G#G#
 And then they'd say


G+G            A augmentedA
 Well how could we have known
             D MajorD      B minorBm
 I'll tell them it's not so hard to tell
     G+G
 Nah nah nah
         A augmentedA
 You keep adding stones
         D MajorD
 Soon the water will
         B minorBm
 Be lost in the well
 G+G         A augmentedA
 Mmmm mmmm

D MajorD           F# minorF#m
 Puzzle pieces in the ground
   C majorC            E minorEm
 But no one ever seems to be digging
             D MajorD                 F# minorF#m
 Instead they're looking up towards the heavens with their eyes on the

 heavens

C majorC                   E minorEm
 Shadows on the way to the heavens
D MajorD            F# minorF#m
 It's enough to make me cry
         C majorC                E minorEm
 But that don't seem like it would make it feel better
            D MajorD                 F# minorF#m
 The answers could be found we could learn from digging down
   C majorC            E minorEm
 But no one ever seems to be digging
         A augmentedA  G#G#
 Instead theyll say


G+G            A augmentedA
 Well how could we have known
             D MajorD      B minorBm
 I'll tell them it's not so hard to tell
     G+G
 Nah nah nah
         A augmentedA
 You keep adding stones
         D MajorD
 Soon the water will
         B minorBm
 Be lost in the well
 G+G         A augmentedA
 Mmmm mmmm


D MajorD           F# minorF#m
 Words of wisdom all around
   C majorC          E minorEm
 But no one ever seems to listen
               D MajorD
 Theyre talking about their plans on the paper
      F# minorF#m
 Building up from the pavement
C majorC                 E minorEm
 Shadows from the scrapers on the pavement
D MajorD            F# minorF#m
 Its enough to make me sigh
        C majorC                E minorEm
 But that dont seem like it would make it feel better
           D MajorD              F# minorF#m
 The words are all around but the words are only sounds
   C majorC          E minorEm
 And no one ever seems to listen
         A augmentedA  G#G#
 Instead theyll say


G+G            A augmentedA
 Well how could we have known
             D MajorD      B minorBm
 I'll tell them it's not so hard to tell
     G+G
 Nah nah nah
         A augmentedA
 You keep adding stones
         D MajorD
 Soon the water will
         B minorBm
 Be lost in the well
