♫ Verse:


E minorEm           G+G         D MajorD              C majorC
An old bum pushes a shopping cart that he stole from Winn Dixie parking lot
E minorEm            G+G  D MajorD C majorC
It's 1:00am and I'm on my way home
E minorEm           G+G        D MajorD        C majorC
I left there before it came to shouts, just in time to see him spit his apple out
E minorEm          G+G          D MajorD C majorC
Left your door and made a beeline for my own
E minorEm G+G D MajorD C majorC 2x
E minorEm           G+G        D MajorD       C majorC
I tell you it's alright but I'm thinking fuck you anyway
E minorEm               G+G          D MajorD          C majorC
You blame you for breaking promises, but I blame me for ever believing a word you'd say
E minorEm              G+G         D MajorD            C majorC
I got what I need but it's not with you, and for what I want, I don't have the nerve
E minorEm           G+G      D MajorD    C majorC
So I guess again it comes down to I get what I deserve

♫ Chorus:


E minorEm G+G  D MajorD         C majorC
And oh, don't be afraid just look around
E minorEm G+G  D MajorD                C majorC
And oh, Go on and say it, it's just a breath with a sound
E minorEm  G+G   D MajorD    C majorC
And oh yea don't be afraid to fall
E minorEm           G+G       D MajorD     C majorC
When we're on the shoulders of giants’ baby after all
E minorEm G+G D MajorD C majorC 2x


♫ Verse:


E minorEm              G+G       D MajorD             C majorC
You smile as if I had nothing better to do, as if you were one of the chosen few
E minorEm          G+G        D MajorD  C majorC
As if there were nothing cooler than you
E minorEm            G+G            D MajorD             C majorC
Still I know you by touch and I know you by smell And I know you by ways too vulgar to tell
E minorEm          G+G              D MajorD     C majorC
See, I guess I know a little all too well so that smile is fitting for you

♫ Chorus:


E minorEm G+G  D MajorD        C majorC
And oh, don't be afraid just look around
E minorEm G+G  D MajorD                C majorC
And oh, Go on and say it, it's just a breath with a sound
E minorEm G+G  D MajorD        C majorC
And oh yes don't be afraid to fall
E minorEm          G+G    D MajorD    C majorC
When we're on the shoulders of giants’ after all
E minorEm G+G D MajorD C majorC 2x


♫ Verse:


E minorEm          G+G               D MajorD                 C majorC
I don't sleep with my politics; I choose not to hate but I don't wear my heart where my knees separate
E minorEm           G+G            D MajorD                C majorC
It's crotch propaganda, bat for both teams, and it's me not choosing sides standing in between
E minorEm          G+G         D MajorD              C majorC
An old bum pushes a shopping cart each notices the other and jumps with a start
E minorEm           G+G    D MajorD  C majorC
It's 2:00am and I've found my way home
E minorEm              G+G               D MajorD            C majorC
Well, it's giants in slumber but it's sleep that won't stay It's singing harps that got away
E minorEm           G+G         D MajorD      C majorC
And I fold my body to fit this furniture, hit the lights and call it a day


♫ Chorus:


E minorEm G+G  D MajorD        C majorC
And oh, don't be afraid just look around
E minorEm G+G  D MajorD                C majorC
And oh, Go on and say it, it's just a breath with a sound
E minorEm G+G  D MajorD      C majorC
And oh don't be afraid to fall
E minorEm           G+G   D MajorD    C majorC
When we're on the shoulders of giants’ after all
E minorEm G+G D MajorD C majorC
