And then the nightmares come

And you get blown away

And up in your room your walls are cold

For the welcome of a better day

And you get blown away

Your walls are getting colder

Like youre getting on a roller coaster

You cant find the breaks

Verse 3 (Same chords as above)

Stevie burned the sky when he flew away
And left us things to say
When all the world was falling down
Around our shoulders; cold and grey
Harry carried on in his usual way
And minnie went inside
He came out once and we both cried
And minnie blew my head away

(repeat chorus and chords)

Seeing things in a better way

Theres nothing you wont give

E
To hear the phone and not let it ring

And gazed out over stevies plane
