Am C F Dm Am C F Dm
You were born in KC, Missouri To a girl who wasn't married
Am C F Dm
After your birth she brought you to the nursery
Am C F Dm
Kissed your head and told you not to worry
G Am Dm F Fadd9 F
And then quietly she turned and slipped away
Am C F Dm Am C F Dm
In the elevator her heart began to pound To the rooftop, in her slippers, and her gown
Am C F Dm
On the edge, she took one last look around
G C
Then closed her eyes and pushed away
Am Em G
Speeding toward the ground
C Am Em G
Through the air without a sound So gracefully
Am C F Dm Am C F Dm
Twelve flights down, nearly naked on the ground Skin and tragedy always attract a crowd
Am C F Dm Am C F Dm
So it was when the policeman came around He took more than fifty eyewitness accounts
G E Am G F Dm G G7 C
Each one in awe, for they'd never seen a girl so sad and beautiful.....
Am Em G
Speeding toward the ground
C Am Em G
Through the air without a sound
C Am Em G
Speeding toward the ground
C Am Em G F
Through the air without a sound So gracefully
