Bm G Em Bm
G Em
[Verse 1]
Bm She walks to the mailbox Bm Each morning at nine G Bm Every day she begins, she's always one day behind G Em At least when it comes to the mail Bm She sits on the balcony paying the bills G Bm Her letters just ashing her cigarettes onto the sill D G Every breath a little more pale
[Pre-Chorus]
A Bm The hill still left to climb is just so
[Chorus]
G Em High D A And I'm so tired G Come on look me in my bloodshot eyes Em D A The clouds are all on fire G Em It's just so high D A And I'm so tired G Come on look me in my bloodshot eyes A Bm G Bm G Em The clouds are all on
[Verse 2]
Bm He sits in his basement Bm From midnight 'til four G Painting pictures that nobody sees Bm From his days in the war G Em Canvases bathed in bright red, red Bm He heats up the shower Bm He paces the hall G He'll scrub for an hour or more Bm But he won't get it all F# G Paint in his fingernail beds
[Pre-Chorus]
A Bm The hill still left to climb is just so
[Chorus]
G Em High D A And I'm so tired G Come on look me in my bloodshot eyes Em D A The clouds are all on fire G Em It's just so high D A And I'm so tired A Come on look up at G The bloodshot sky A G D The clouds are all on
[Post-Chorus]
A G D Fire, the clouds are all on A G A Fire, the clouds are all on

[Bridge]
A G Bm We wait in valleys while the clouds come in A G We see no shadows A 'Cause a shadow's all there is Bm And we climb (And we climb) A And we climb (And we climb)
[Chorus]
G Em But it's just so high D A And I'm so tired G Come on look me in my bloodshot eyes Em D A The clouds are all on fire Em It's just so high D A And I'm so tired A Come on look up at G The bloodshot sky A G D The clouds are all on
[Outro]
A G D Fire, the clouds are all on A G D Fire, the clouds are all on, the clouds are all on A G D Fire, the clouds are all on A G A Bm Fire
