I nev er (G)thought that it’d be eas y, ’cause we’re (D)both so dis tant now,

and the (A)walls are clos ing in on us, and we’re won der ing how.

(Bm)No one (G)has a sol id an swer, but you’re still (D)walk ing in the dark, and you can (A)see the look on my face; it just tears me a part.

So (Bm)we fight

through the hurt,

and we cry, and cry, and cry, and cry.

And (Bm)we live,

and we learn,

and we try, and try, and try, and try.

So (Bm)it’s up to you, and it’s up to me that we meet in the mid dle on our way back down to (Bm)earth,

down to earth,

down to earth,

on our way back down to (Bm)earth.

(Back down to earth, back down to earth, back down to earth, back down to earth, back down to earth, back down to earth, back down to earth, back down to Ma earth.) ma, you were al ways some where, and Dad dy, (D)I live out of town.

So tell me, (A)how could I ev er be nor mal, some how?

You (Bm)tell me (G)this is for the best, so tell me, (D)why am I in tears?

Woo, woo.

So far a way, and now I just need you here.

So (Bm)we fight

through the hurt,

and we cry, and cry, and cry, and cry.

And (Bm)we live,

and we learn,

and we try, and try, and try, and try.

So (Bm)it’s up back down to earth, back (Bm)down to earth.)

We felt so far a way

from where we used to be.

Now we’re stand ing, and where do we go?

But when there’s no road

to get to your heart,

let’s start o ver a gain.

So it’s up to you, and it’s up to me that we meet in the mid dle on our way back down to (Bm)earth,

down to earth,

down to earth,

on our (Bm)way back down to I earth.

nev er thought that it’d be eas y, ’cause we’re (D)both so dis tant now,

and the (A)walls are clos ing in on us, and we’re won der ing how.
