F            C
Awake from a dream
         Dm           Am
One that started as a nightmare
      F         C
Like a war so extreme
Dm                    Am
It erased itself from memory
F              C
Here's where I jumped
         Dm                Am
From the aeroplane without questioning it
    F            C            Dm
The curve of the coast of Los Angeles
          Am
Spreading itself below


[Chorus]
C             Em       C
And blooming overhead, the parachute
Bm          A        C#m  A    G#m
I've got to trust it now, oh
C#m

[Verse 2]
F             C
Change in the wind
        Dm                Am
And I'm drifting from the crescent
F              C
Pulled farther out
         Dm                     Am
From the shore than where I can swim to it


[Chorus]
C             Em       C
And blooming overhead, the parachute
Bm          A        C#m  A    G#m
I've got to trust it now, oh

[Outro]
E                 B
Closing in on the sparkle of the waves
C#m                     A               E       B
Go on, take me, it will feel like going home
C#m                       A
Go on, take me, I'm not afraid to drown
Eadd9   E                Bsus4          B
What is this, pulling me back the other way
C#m             A                  Eadd9  E  Bsus4   B
To strip malls, highways, and treetops
C#m                    A
Landing on the soft ground
