Intro: C F Am F

C	     G
Eagle in the dark
Am	        F
Feathers in the pages
C             G
Monkeys in my heart
Am                 F
Are rattling their cages.

Found a way to blue
And another ghost to follow
Said "it's only up to you"
It's the hardest pill to swallow.

hmmmmmmmm hmmmmmmm

You never get to choose
You live on what they sent you
And you know they're gonna use
The things you love against you

One foot in the grave
One foot in the shower
There's never time to save
You're paying by the hour

C          G               Am
And that's just the way it goes
F
Falling awake
C          G               Am
And that's just the way it goes

F

musical interlude: just play the chords (C G Am F)

Slipping through the bars
Aware of the danger
Of riding in the cars
Taking candy from strangers

And you're never out of hand
Never out of pocket
I'm supersonic man
Do you wanna buy a rocket?

C          G               Am
Oh, that's just the way it goes
F       C     G          Am
Falling awake...falling awake

F C

Hmmm

C          G               Am
And that's just the way it goes
F        C    G          Am
Falling awake...falling awake

F  C

Eagle in the dark
Feathers in the pages
Monkeys in my heart
Are rattling their cages

I could learn to play the game
I could learn to run the hustle
If I only had the brains
The money or the muscle

play chords over and over(C G Am F) until the end
