Intro:
G Cadd9 G

Verse 1:
G
You and I were climbing up the ladder
        Cadd9           G
To that mansion on the hill
G
All of the time never realising
         Cadd9              D  Dsus4 D
You must first learn how to kill
Em                C
Where the winner takes it all
     G                 D
And drowns the loser’s mayday call
Em               C
And the price we all must pay
    D
Is returned to the land
Chorus:
       Em    D   C
It’s a hard road up
             Em   D    C
Then it’s a free fall down
Em        D       C       G
Castles crumbling one and all
        C         D      G
But at least I’m still around

Verse 2:
G
You and I were strumming our guitars
         Cadd9                    G
Playing clubs in a rock ‘n’ roll band
G
Dreaming up songs for a nickel and a dime
     Cadd9              D  Dsus4 D
When things ran out of hand
Em            C
Managers and drummer’s wives
G              D
Had me run for my dear life
Em              C
From a blessing to a curse
    D
We had to make a stand

Chorus:
       Em    D   C
It’s a hard road up
             Em   D    C
Then it’s a free fall down
Em        D       C       G
Ships wreck on the ocean floor
        C         D      G
But at least I’m still around

Break:
G  Cadd9  G  Cadd9  D Dsus4 D
Em  A  Em C  G  C  D  G

Verse 3:
G
You and I – we blew up the gold dust
Cadd9             G
Clear for all to see
G
Never let go of the fleeting spirit
       Cadd9              D  Dsus4 D
As our minds were roaming free
Em           C
As I lose my one last buck
G                D
Find me stranded on my luck
   Em             C
No danger in the way you fall
     D
It’s in the way you land, ooh

Chorus:
Em    D   C
Hard road up
             Em   D    C
Then it’s a free fall down
    Em  D       C     G
I’m evolution’s miracle
        C         D      G
But at least I’m still around

Chorus:
Em    D   C
Hard road up
             Em   D    C
Then it’s a free fall down
    Em  D       C     G
I’m evolution’s miracle
        C         D      G
But at least I’m still around
