[VERSE]
Em                       G
  Skyscrapers please forgive me
C                              B
  I didn't mean a word I said
Em                  G                          C    B
  Skyscrapers I was just tangled up in my own head
Em                        G
  And somehow in all the madness
C                                B
  I thought that I was seeing straight
Em                               G                        C    B
  It ain't always pretty but it seemed there was no other way
 
[CHORUS]
      G                F#
And I guess all I ever loved
            E                C
Was standing right before my eyes
    G    F#         E    C
And I, oh I, I was blind
 
[VERSE]
Em                         G
  So skyscrapers please forgive me
C                                   B
  I'm standing here repentative man
Em                     G               C      B
  Oh skyscrapers I'll never look down again, again
 
[CHORUS]
             G                F#
Oh 'cause I guess all I ever loved 
            E                C
Was standing right before my eyes
            G                   F#
Oh yeah, I guess all I've ever known
             E             C
Was standing here all the time
    G       F#         E
And I, yeah I, I was blind
 
REPEAT THE VERSE CHORDS FOR THE OUTRO "I was blind" SECTION
 
And thats it. Sounds best when its up higher on the fretboard. As in, the first E
minor is on the 7th fret on the A string. Yeah, that's all. Any problems/
questions and stuff, e-mail me on the address above.
 
Thanks :)
