[Intro]

Bb Cm Eb Dm Cm
Bb Cm Eb F7

[Verse 1]
  Bb                 Cm
I stood as tall as a mountain
       Eb                        Dm  Cm
I never really thought about the drop
  Bb                     Cm
I trod over rocks to get there
       Eb                 F7
Just so I could stand on top
Bb                  Cm
Clumsy and blind I stumbled
     Eb                     Dm Cm
As I crawled through desert sands
  Bb                             Cm
I didn't stop to think about the consequences
      Eb                   F7
As it came to pieces in my hands

[Chorus]
Bb             Cm             Eb            Dm  Cm
Tu tu are you, tu tu are you, tu tu are you, tu tu
Bb             Cm             Em             F7
Tu tu are you, tu tu are you, tu tu are you, tu

[Verse 2]
  Bb                       Cm
I thought I was a maritime marvel
   Eb                      Dm  Cm
I believed that I ruled the waves
     Bb                    Cm
All I could say is time is motion
          Eb                         F7
And every effort others made I would save
Bb                    Cm
I was a shit stained statue
     Eb                      Dm  Cm
School children would stand in awe
  Bb                     Cm
I truly believed I was a ceiling of sky
     Eb                     F7
Never thought about having flaws

[Chorus]
Bb             Cm             Eb            Dm  Cm
Tu tu are you, tu tu are you, tu tu are you, tu tu
Bb             Cm             Eb             F7
Tu tu are you, tu tu are you, tu tu are you, tu

[Verse 3]
   Bb                 Cm
I felt as reverent as Jesus
Eb             Dm  Cm
The sanctimony stunk
   Bb                          Cm
I thought I was admiral of the missing fleet
           Eb             F7
I couldn't see that I was sunk
  Bb                     Cm
I roared my pride in the darkness
  Eb                   Dm  Cm
I scratched away at the stars
  Bb                         Cm
I thought I was lord of this crappy jungle
   Eb                        F7
I should have been put behind bars

[Chorus]
Bb             Cm             Eb            Dm  Cm
Tu tu are you, tu tu are you, tu tu are you, tu tu
Bb             Cm             Eb             F7
Tu tu are you, tu tu are you, tu tu are you, tu

[Verse 4] 
no guitar for first half

But now I sit with my head in my hands
And wail to the weeping wall
The avalanche of my emotions
Holds the audience of one enthralled
    Bb                      Cm
I'm learning the lesson the hard way
       Eb          Dm   Cm
Like a fall from command
        Bb                        Cm
I thought I was king of the whole wide world
       Eb/          F7/          Bb/
But it just came to pieces in my hands
