Capo at 1st fret.
TBmhis morning I could hDear the sounds
The cAity burning Gto the ground
TBmoday I saw the sDky come crashing dAownG  
I hBmeard a whisper Din my ear
It sAaid come with me, aGway from here
And lBmeave this burning builDdings far behAind yGou
But it was Bmfar tDoo lAate
So it all came crashing down
(CHORUS)
BmI can sDee your sAhadow's much too fGar behind you
BmAnd I can sDee you're much too lAateG  
At night we watched the stars explode
The blackest sky we'd ever known
The moon came falling down just shortly after
The earth that we were standing on
Was burning and would so be gone
Unless the oceans started overflowing
I can see your shadow's much to far behind you
And I can see you're much too late [x2]
Woah [x3]
This morning I could hear the sounds
The city burning to the ground
And I could hardly even hear you breathe
At night we watched the stars explode with you
I can see your...
I can see your shadow's much to far behind you
And I can see you're much too late [x2]
Woah [x6]
At night we watched the stars explode with you

Bm D

This morning I could hear the sounds

A G

The city burning to the ground

Bm D A G

Today I saw the sky come crashing down

Bm D

I heard a whisper in my ear

A G

It said come with me, away from here

Bm D A G

And leave this burning buildings far behind you

Bm D A

But it was far too late

So it all came crashing down

(CHORUS)

Bm D A G

I can see your shadow's much too far behind you

Bm D A G

And I can see you're much too late

At night we watched the stars explode

The blackest sky we'd ever known

The moon came falling down just shortly after

The earth that we were standing on

Was burning and would so be gone

Unless the oceans started overflowing

I can see your shadow's much to far behind you

And I can see you're much too late [x2]

Woah [x3]

This morning I could hear the sounds

The city burning to the ground

And I could hardly even hear you breathe

At night we watched the stars explode with you

I can see your...

I can see your shadow's much to far behind you

And I can see you're much too late [x2]

Woah [x6]

At night we watched the stars explode with you
