INTRO: F
G Am Em
I asked the habitual party goer
F G C
Just how high she thought she'd get
F G Am Em
And I asked the ethereal girls
F G C
If they were floating yet
CHORUS: F G Am Em
And so I asked the light of the day
F G Am Em
What's this rush for heaven
F G Am Em
And I saw a bird fly away__
F G C F C F C
And I could not ask again
F G Am Em
The tabloid tainted actress knows
F G C
The myth of higher ground
F G Am Em
The thing she got from playing a nun
F G C
She got from sleeping around
CHORUS: F G Am Em
And so I asked the light of the day
F G Am Em
What's this rush for heaven
F G Am Em
And I saw a bird fly away__
F G C F
And I could not ask again
G Am Em
He fell in the mud and
F C
He became enlightened
F C Am C F C
I wonder who's laughing now
F G Am Em
And I've been running uphill, panting
F G C
Punching at the air
F G Am Em
Fighting what's been pushing me down
F G C
Like I can see it there
CHORUS: F G Am Em
And so I asked the light of the day
F G Am Em
What's this rush for heaven
F G Am Em
And I saw a bird fly away__
F G C
And I could not ask again
F G Am Em
And I saw all this climbing, climbing
F G C
Just as far from heaven
F G Am Em
And I saw a bird fly away__
F G C
And I started climbing again
F G Am Em F C Am Em F G C
Who's laughing now_____
F G C
He fell in the mud and
F C
