So it goes "GGC, CCG, GGC, CCG" etc.) Verse: G I decided on that evening C That I was through with sitting still Am I stood up and started moving C With a childlike fascination G For those doors that don't have locks C And the stairways that were blocked Am So I dug through the obstruction C Put my fist around the railing G And each step was far apart C And far away from steps before it Am And the air was getting thinner C Until I couldn't breathe at all G And if I happened to look behind me C There were miles and miles of stairs Am Enough so I couldn't see the doorway C But I knew that it was there G And on the last step I was dizzy C Because there were stairs in all directions Am But I found another door C And through the door there was the attic G Without old clothes Without a ceiling C Everything had opened wide Am Into the jaws of something bigger C And suddenly I saw that I was Chorus: Em G C G D Upstairs and outside and freezing on the roof Em G Finally it had found me C Em A C The answer, the feeling, and the truth: Outro: G That I'm small Em That I'm small C G That I'm small A Am I'm smaller than the smallest fireball G, Em, C, G, A, Am to end
