Andrew McMahon in the Wilderness - Fire Escape
The other version didn't have enough chord changes to accurately reflect the song.
If you need help with the chorus rhythm, listen to the song around 2:26 where the chorus is
just piano and vocals.
[Intro]
E C#m A
[Verse 1]
E
I met up with an acrobat in Brooklyn or some place like that
C#m A
With life and taxis flying past, we tore that dance hall down
E
Pocket change and subway cars, our big ideas filled empty bars
You might be from the moon or Mars
C#m A
Either way, I'm never going home
[Pre-Chorus]
E
So let's hang an anchor from the sun
E
There's a million city lights, but
[Chorus]
A E
You're number one
B C#m A
You're the reason I'm still up at dawn
E B
Just to see your face
A E B
We'll be going strong with the vampires, baby
C#m A E B N.C
We belong, we belong awake, swinging from the fire escape
[Verse 2]
E
I was drinking from the wishing well, some junkie metal head hotel
C#m A
When we boarded the carousel, the roof was caving in
E
On the stage, my ox blood friend was singing songs about the end
C#m A
The bankers in the lion's den were dropping lines like beggars in the snow
[Pre-Chorus]
E
So let's hang an anchor from the sun
E
There's a million city lights, but
[Chorus]
A E
You're number one
B C#m A
You're the reason I'm still up at dawn
E B
Just to see your face
A E B
We'll be going strong with the vampires, baby
C#m A E B A E B
We belong, we belong awake, swinging from the fire escape
A E B
Swinging from the fire escape,
N.C
Swinging from the fire escape
[Bridge]
E
Walking home, your hand in mine, tattoos on the river line
E
The morning birds are taking flight
C#m A
Either way, I thought that you should know
[Chorus]
A E
You're number one
B C#m A
You're the reason I'm still up at dawn
E B
Just to see your face
A E B
We'll be going strong with the vampires, baby
C#m A E N.C
We belong, we belong awake,
A E
You're number one
B C#m A
You're the reason I'm still up at dawn
E B
Just to see your face
A E B
We'll be going strong with the vampires, baby
C#m A E B A E B
We belong, we belong awake, swinging from the fire escape
A E B
Swinging from the fire escape
C#m A E B
Swinging from the fire escape,
A E B
Swinging from the fire escape
