Bm
Gilbert works alone, late into the night

G                         G                  G
Dangling from a freeway overpass

Bm
He’s welding rebar and sculpting concrete

G                                 G                  G
They’re paving in the gap way out west

Em                               Em
Off in the distance the sleeping city shines

G               G                     G
Raises his mask to take a look

Em                                      Em
Slips from the perch still holding onto his torch

G                        G                            G
I see him falling just like a burning star

                    Bm       G    Em    G
Out of control mmmmmm mmmmmm

                                        Bm     G    Em       G
And heading way of course mmmmmmm mmmmmm

Bm                            G                  G
Waking up confused in a bed of thorn

            G                            Bm
And a world turn upside down

Bm
No questionasked no party ever surched 

G                             G                   G
Like a blip Gilbert slips into the void

Em                            Em
A rustle nearby and vision appears

G                   G                        G
Made from saquaro boots and rib

Em
She takes ahold of his prickly hand

          Em
And together they stand

G                                G               G
Walk on through the ruins of a world
