                         C#                      F#
Snow is falling from the sky, in the middle of July
                      B    Bb         G#
Sun was shining in my eyes again last night
                         C#                       D#                   G#
Alarm goes off without a sound, the silence is so loud something isn't right 

                        C#                      F#
Footsteps echo down the hall, no one's there at all
			  B           Bb      G# 
Dial your number but your voice says "I'm not home"
              C#                                  D#   
Everything is inside out, I don't know what it's about

It keeps getting stranger by the day
B        F#     E  F#  
stranger by the day
                 B        F#     E  F#  
It keeps getting stranger by the day
B        F#     E  F#  G#

                    C#                      F#
Going for a walk outside, to see what I can find
                      B         Bb   G#
No reflections in the windows I pass by 
                       C#                            D#                       G#
It feels hotter in the shade, water's running up the drain, something's going on

                   C#                       F#
Conversations with a mime, stared at by the blind
                    B       Bb  G# 
Imagination must be working overtime
                    C#                         D#
The world is upside down, everything is turned around
