VERSE
IE've been searching for dBays now
I've found something I lAbmost
On a hBoly roller channel 
Asking me what's the cAbmost
EOn a couch in a cBold room
Pouring salt in my woAbmunds

Living inside your dAbmreams
You know that aBin't no way to live 
Or to handle sAbmuch things
EI wanna shake up your sBystem
I wanna rattle your bAbmones
I wanna tBake you to the stars 
And then I'll leave you aAbmlone
EOoooh oh oh

VERSE:
LEighting up the horBizon
To the city skyAbmline
In a fBaded aspiration 
Only left in our mAbminds

Let's go and rattle their frAbmames
Let's take the hBighest road away 
And avoid these trAbmappings Eoh

VERSE

E B

I've been searching for days now

Abm

I've found something I lost

On a holy roller channel

Abm

Asking me what's the cost

E B

On a couch in a cold room

Abm

Pouring salt in my wounds

I'm a mistake faking truth

Abm

Holding liars balloons

Ooooh oh

B E Abm E

Make me fly for something more

VERSE:

E B

You've been asleep for days now

Abm

Living inside your dreams

You know that ain't no way to live

Abm

Or to handle such things

E B

I wanna shake up your system

Abm

I wanna rattle your bones

I wanna take you to the stars

Abm

And then I'll leave you alone

Ooooh oh oh

B E Abm E

I would meet you anywhere

CHORUS:

But I've been

Farther down

E F#

I saw you somewhere

Farther down

E F#

Did I expect it?

Abm B

Now I'm overcome with fear

E Abm

Mama get me out of here

I've gone

Farther down

E B E

Than I ever wanna goooo-o-o-o

VERSE:

E B

Lighting up the horizon

Abm

To the city skyline

In a faded aspiration

Abm

Only left in our minds

E B

Let us shake up the system

Abm

Let's go and rattle their frames

Let's take the highest road away

Abm E

And avoid these trappings oh

B E Abm E

I would meet you anywhere

CHORUS:

But I've been

Farther down

E F#

I saw you somewhere

Farther down

E F# Abm

Did I expect it?

Now I'm overcome with fear

E Abm

Mama get me out of here

I've gone

Farther down

E B E

Than I ever wanna goooo-o-o-o

We stood out in the cold

And your eyes they ate my soul

Beg me to come back down

Abm

They beg me to come back down

Then the ground ate my legs

Abm F#

So I looked up the sky and said,

I don't want to go back down

Abm F#

Oh I've been so far dooooown

Heaven help me

F# B E F#

For the way I've been

CHORUS:

Farther down

E F# Abm

Did I expect it?

Now I'm overcome with fear

E Abm

Mama get me out of here

I've gone

Farther down than I ever,

E F#

Than I ever wanna go

Farther down

E F#

I saw him somewhere

Farther down

E F# Abm

Did I expect it?

B E

Now I'm overcome with feeling

Woh oh oh oh oh

Abm

Mama get me out,

E F# B

Mama get me out of here
