VERSE 1:
Am Bm Am Bm
High on the bell tower
Am Bm Am Bm
I took my view
Am Bm Am Bm
Over the downtowns

On the avenues

And the people thrive

And its further to fall down
Am Bm Am Bm
Cause you fly so high
PRECHORUS

And I wish that I could be

VERSE 2: Chords same as VERSE 1
Down in the delta
The city wakes
Turns on the TV
As the levee breaks
Where the streets are burned
From the hot summer sun
And there's nowhere to run to
When your time has come
PRECHORUS:
Am Bm Am Bm
I've never seen such beauty
Am Bm Am Bm
I've never seen such clear skies
Am Bm Am Bm
I've never seen such high hopes
Am Bm Am Bm
I've never seen such tired eyes
Am Bm Am Bm
Open wounds of piece by piece
Am Bm Am Bm
All those flesh all over me
Am Bm Am Bm
Take my pills and went to sleep
Am Bm Am Bm F
Ohhhhhhhh, and I sang myself to sleep
CHORUS:
F Am G
And I wish that I could be
G F
Everything you are
Am G
Everything you are
F Am G
And I wish that I could see
G F
The world the way you do
Am G
As selfishly as you

Very well done!
There's only one thing (with the verses) that bothers me, since it isn't correct...
The second part of Prechorus 2 should be:
"Pulled the roots up piece by piece,
felt life watching over me,
took my pills and I went to sleep,
Oooooh, and I sang myself to sleep."
