Intro: Eb Bb Eb Bb Eb Bb Eb Bb
Eb Bb Eb Bb
I'm high above the city
Eb Bb Eb Bb
I'm standing on the ledge
Eb Bb Eb Bb
The view from here is pretty
Eb Bb Eb Bb
And I step off the edge
Gm Eb
And now I'm fallin', baby
Bb F
Through the sky, through the sky
Gm Eb Bb Dm
And I'm fallin', baby through the sky
Eb F
It's my callin', baby
Gm C
Don't you cry, don't you cry
Eb Bb
And I'm fallin' down through the sky
C
Toward the street that I'm from
Eb Bb Eb Bb Eb Bb
Oh, Broadway, here I come
The pressure it increases
The closer that I get
I could almost go to pieces
But I'm not quite there yet
See, I've been bravin' crazy weather
Drownin' out my cries
I pull myself together
I'm focused on the prize
And now I'm fallin', baby
Through the sky, through the sky
I'm fallin', baby through the sky
It's my callin', baby
Don't you cry, don't you dry
'Cause I'm fallin' down through the sky
And it's a tune you can hum
Oh, Broadway here I come
Continue Bb Eb throughout
Will I remain the same
Or will I change a little bit?
Will I feel broken or totally complete?
C
Will I retain my name when I'm the biggest, hugest hit?
Dm F
Or will I blend in with the rest of the street
Dm F
Eb Bb Eb Bb etc etc
The people all are pointing
I bet they'd never guess
That the saint that they're anointing
Is frightened of the mess
But even though I fear it
I'm playin' all my cards...
Baby, you are gonna hear it
When I give them my regards
And I'm fallin' baby
Through the sky, through the sky
Now I'm fallin', baby through the sky
It's my callin', baby
Don't you cry, don't you cry
And I'm fallin' down through the sky
C
And I refuse to go numb
Eb Bb
Oh, Broadway here I come
Broadway, here I come
Broadway, here I come
Oh, Broadway, Broadway, here I come
Here I come!
C
And the last thing I hear
Bb
As the impact grows near
Eb
Is it a scream or a cheer?
Well, never mind, I'll never find out
Bb
'Cause Broadway I am here
