D Em
We used to say
D D/G Em
That come the day
D D/C# Bm Bm7 Am Am7
We'd all be making songs
C G
Or finding better words
C G D
These ideas never lasted long
D Em
The way is up
D D/G Em
Along the road
D D/C# Bm Bm7 Am Am7
The air is growing thin
C G
Too many friends who tried
C G D
Were blown off this mountain with the wind
CHORUS

D Am
Meet on the ledge, We're gonna meet on the ledge
C G
When my time is up I'm gonna see all my friends
D Am
Meet on the ledge, We're gonna meet on the ledge
C G
If you really mean it, it all comes round again.
D Em
Yet now I see
D D/G Em
I'm all alone
D D/C# Bm Bm7 Am Am7
But that's the only way to be
C G
You'll have your chance again
C G D
Then you can do the work for me
Repeat Chorus
