Вступление
[Verse 1]
G C G
The first plane hit the other tower, right after I came in
D
It left a fiery, gaping hole where offices had been
C G C G
We stood and watched in horror, as we saw the first ones fall
C G A7 D
Then someone yelled, "Get out, get out, they're trying to kill us all"
[Verse 2]
G C G
I grabbed the pictures from my desk and joined the flight for life
D
With every step I called the names of my children and my wife
C G C G
And then we heard them coming up, from several floors below
C G A7 D
A crowd of firefighters with their heavy gear in tow
[Chorus]
C G C G
Now every time I try to sleep, I'm haunted by the sound
D G D
Of firemen pounding up the stairs, while we were running down
[Verse 3]
G C G
And when we met them on the stairs, they said we were too slow
D
"Get out, get out", they yelled at us, "The whole thing's gonna go"
C G C G
They didn't have to tell us twice, we'd seen the world on fire
C G A7 D
We kept on running down the stairs, while they kept climbing higher
[Chorus]
C G C G
Now every time I try to sleep, I'm haunted by the sound
D G D
Of firemen pounding up the stairs, while we were running down
[Verse 4]
G C G
Thank God, we made it to the street, we ran through ash and smoke
D
I didn't know which way to run, I thought that I would choke
C G C G
A fireman took me by the arm and he pointed me uptown
C G A7 D
And, "Christ", I heard him whisper, as the tower came roaring down
[Verse 5]
G C G
So now I go to funerals for men I never knew
D
The pipers play 'Amazing Grace' as the coffins come in view
C G C G
They must have seen it coming when they turned to face the fire
C G A7 D
They sent us down to safety, then they kept on climbing higher
[Chorus]
C G C G
Now every time I try to sleep, I'm haunted by the sound
D G
Of firemen pounding up the stairs, while we were running down
D G
Of firemen pounding up the stairs, while we were running down
