Verse (Guitar 2)
F5 D#5
Heaven’s gates won’t open up for me
F5 D#5
With these broken wings I’m fallin’
F5 D#5 F5 D#5
And all I see is you
F5 D#5
These city walls ain’t got no love for me
F5 D#5
I’m on the ledge of the eighteenth story
F5 D#5 F5 (no guitar)
All I need is you Come please I’m callin’
F5 D#5 F5 (no guitar)
And oh I scream for you hurry I’m fallin’
Chorus (Both Guitars)
C5 D#5 A#5 F5
Show me what its like (to be the last one standing)
C5 D#5 A#5 F5
And teach me wrong from right (and I’ll show you what I can be)
G#5 D#5 F5 C5 D#5
And say it for me, say it to me. And ill leave this life behind me.
G#5 D#5 F5
Say it if it’s worth savin’ me.
