E
Every cloud has a silver line
                                 B
But you still need the moon to shine
                        E
And we don't care about it
Is there something that you forgot
                                  B
And you wish you could stop the clock
                               F#
Because you can't live without it
                  E
We don't have a clue

Chorus:
           G#m F#/A# B
Cause we're 3 miles high
      E                         G#m F#
And around is dust and feathers fly
       G#m  F#/A#   B
And we can't climb down
           E
Cause we'd burst our little bubble on
    G#m   F#
the ground

Everyone has a wall to climb
But we don't really have the time
To give a who-how about it
And your life is a Russian doll
You were given when you were small
And they're all inside you
But we don't have a clue

Chorus

      C#m7/G# D#m/A# E
And we won't come  down
       C#m7/G# D#m/A# E
Till we hit   the  ground

Chorus
