Verse: (with rhythm figure 1)
Baby's black balloon makes her fly
I almost fell into that hole in your life
And you're not thinking about tomorrow
(riff 1)
'cause you were the same as me
But on your knees
(verse2)
Chorus:
Comin' down the world turned over
And angels fall without you there
And I go on as you get colder
Or are you someone's prayer
(verse3)
(chorus)
Bridge:
F#-G B-A-G G-G-F#-E (slide up to G)
And there's no time left for losin'
When you stand they fall
(chorus)x2
All because I'm
And I'll become
What you became to me
End
