Racing Rats (ver2) Chords - Editors






Intro: Em G Am  D  x 2

Em             G
When the time comes 
Am                     D
That you're no longer here 
Em               G
Fall down to my knees 
Am             G
Begin my nightmare 
Em                           G
Words spill from my drunken mouth
Am                       D 
I just can't keep'em all in 
Em                        G
I keep up with the racing rats
Am                 D
And do my best to win

intro again

(same as verse 1)
Slow down little one 
You can't keep running away 
You mustn't go outside yet 
It's not your time to play 
Standing at the edge of your town
With the skyline in your eyes
Reaching up to god
    Am                D     Em 
The sun says its goodbyes

     C             D             Em 
If a plane were to fall from the sky 
          C             G
How big a hole would it leave 
       D                   
In the surface of the earth 

(same as verse 1)
Let's pretend we never met 
Let's pretend we're on our own 
We live different lives 
Until our covers blown 
I push my hand up to the sky 
Shade my eyes from the sun 
As the dust settles around me 
         Am             D Em 
Suddenly nightime has begun 

     C             D             Em 
If a plane were to fall from the sky 
          C             G
How big a hole would it leave 
       D
In the surface of the earth 
The surface of the earth 

Em     C
Come on now 
    G             D
You knew you were lost
        Em     C     G D
But you carried on anyway
   Em     C
Oh come on now
    G               D
You knew you had no time 
        Em     C        G   D    Em
But you let the day drift away 

     C             D             Em 
If a plane were to fall from the sky 
          C             G     Em
How big a hole would it leave 
     C             D             Em
If a plane were to fall from the sky 
          C             G
How big a hole would it make 
       D
In the surface of the earth 
The surface of the earth
                       Em
The surface of the earth
