[Verse 1]
Cadd9Step out the front door like a Dghost
into the fog where no-one Em7notices
the contrast of wGhite on white.
And Cadd9in between the moon and you
The Dangels get a better view
of the cEm7rumbling difference between Gwrong and right.
[Verse 2]
I walk iCadd9n the air, between the rain
Dthrough myself and back again.
Em7Where? I don't know.G  
MaCadd9ria says she's dying.
Through the Ddoor I hear her crying
Why? Em7I don't knowG  
[Interlude]
Round here Cwe alDways stand up straightEm  G  
Round hereC, someDthing radiates.Em  G  
[Verse 3]
MarCadd9ia came from Nashville with a Dsuitcase in her hand
She said she'd lEm7ike to meet a boy who looks like GElvis
She wCadd9alks along the edge where the Docean meets the land
just like she's Em7walking on a wire in the cGircus
[Verse 4]
She Cadd9parks her car outside of my houseD  
takes her clothes off
Em7says she's close to understanding GJesus
She knows Cadd9she's more than just a little Dmisunderstood
She has Em7trouble acting normal when she's Gnervous
[Verse 5]
Round here Cwe're Dcarving out our EmnamesG  
Round heCre Dwe all look the EmsameG  
Round here Cwe talk just like lDions
But we sEmacrifice like lGambs
Round Chere she's sDlipping through my Emhands
A   DRound Ahere
[Verse 6]
Am7Sleeping children better D7run like Athe windG  A  
Am7Out of the D7lightning dAream G   A  
Am7Mama's little baby better D7get herAself in
OCut of the lDightning
[Bridge]
Cadd9She says, "It's Donly in my hEm7ead."G  
She says, Cadd9"shh...I know it's Donly in my Em7head."G  
[Verse 7]
But the Cadd9girl on the car in the parking lot
says: D"Man, you should try to take a shot
Em7Can't you see my walls are Gcrumbling?"
Then she Cadd9looks up at the building
Say's she's thDinking of jumping
She says she's tEm7ired of life;
She must be tiGred of something.
[Verse 8]
Round heCre she's Dalways on my EmmindG  
Round Chere DI got lots of tEmimeG  
Round heCre we're never sent to bed Dearly
Man, noEmbody makes us waGit
round Chere we stay up Dvery, very, Emvery, very late.
[Verse 9]
GI, I can't see Cnothin', noDthin'
Around heEmreG  
You catch me if I'm faClling,
You catch me if I'm fDalling,
Will you catch me cause I'm fEmalling down on yGou
I said I'm uCadd9nder the gunD  
aEm7round herGe
Oh, man I said I'm Cadd9under the gunD  
Around hEm7ereG  
And I can't see Cadd9nothin',Dnothin'
Round Emhere.

The story behind the song

This song opens with a vivid image of a guy stepping out of his house, setting a scene that feels both ordinary and deeply personal. It emerged from the band's early days, played in bars and coffee houses, capturing a raw and immediate feeling. While the Counting Crows version is a slow and mellow folk rock piece, earlier versions were more "pure" rock, with prominent electric guitar. At its heart, playing this song feels like stepping into a character's unfolding story.
