E  F#m                C#m
   There's a problem  feathers iron
F#m                C#m
Bargain buildings  weights and pullies
F#m              C#m               F#m                  C#m
Feathers hit the ground before the weight can leave the air
F#m     B       E        A       F#m              B7
Buy the sky and sell the sky and tell the sky and tell the sky
      E   F#m      A    B
Don't fall      on me 
E    F#m     A  B
Fall      on me 
E    F#m     A  B  A   G#m
Fall      on me 
F#m                  C#m
There's the progress we have found       
F#m            C#m
A way to talk around the problem         
F#m               C#m
Building towered foresight               
      F#m         C#m
Isn't anything at all                    
F#m     B       E        A       F#m                B7
Buy the sky and sell the sky and bleed the sky and tell the sky
      E   F#m      A    B
Don't fall      on me 
E    F#m     A  B
Fall      on me 
E    F#m     A  B  A   G#m
Fall      on me 
 C#m               A         C#m
      Well I could keep it above
            B               C#m
But then it wouldn't be sky anymore
        A                            F#m                 B
So if I send it to you you've got to promise to keep it whole
F#m     B       E        A       F#m       B       E       A
Buy the sky and sell the sky and lift your arms up to the sky
    F#m             B
And ask the sky and ask the sky
      E   F#m      A    B
Don't fall      on me 
E    F#m     A  B
Fall      on me 
E    F#m     A  B  A   G#m    
Fall      on me 

E F#m A B  repeat and fade
