Intro D D/C D/B Dsus2 *
Verse 1
D D/C
I watch as daylight crawls

Past the shadows hanging on the wall

It’s been a long time since I’ve felt the stain
D/B Dsus2
Of yesterday getting in my way
Chorus
G D Am
I’m alive but tell me am I free
G C
I got eyes but tell me can I see
G A D
The sky is falling and no one knows
G D Am
It shouldn’t be hard to believe
G C
Shouldn’t be this difficult to breathe
G A D
The sky is falling and no one knows
Verse 2
D D/C
You leave me hanging on, only to catch my breath
D/B Dsus2
I got you and I got nothing left
D D/C
Don’t leave me all alone down here
D/B Dsus2
With myself and all of my fear

Past the shadows hanging on the walls
It's been a long time since I felt the stain
Of yesterday getting in my way
I'm alive but tell me am I free
I got eyes but tell me can I see
The sky is falling and no one knows
It shouldn't be hard to believe
Shouldn't be this difficult to breathe
The sky is falling and no one knows
You leave me hanging on only to catch my breath
I got you and I got nothing left
Don't leave me all alone down here
With myself and all of my fears
I'm alive but tell me am I free
I got eyes but tell me can I see
The sky is falling and no one knows
It shouldn't be hard to believe
Shouldn't be this difficult to breathe
The sky is falling and no one knows
The sky is falling and no knows
No one knows
No one knows
