Intro:  D  E  D  E

D                     E
Walking 'round this metropolis 
         D                            E 
With its buildings that reach to the clouds 
D                          E
There must be millions of people out there
D                               E   
Walking 'round with their heads bowed 

This city kills me, but it thrills me 
Now something's gone and held up the crowd 
They're pointing at a man standing high on a ledge 
And somebody just cried out loud 

A           G           A       G    Bm  D

Don't look down

F                     G
What made it happen, sure makes you think
F                                   Bb              F
Must have been something special to send him to the brink 
D                                E
Down here on the sidewalk, he's clearly in view 
       F
Then a voice shouts up to him 
     Bb          F              C     
Try thinking it through but whatever you do

Don't look down at the people below, oh

    G#                            C#              G#
The cheers of the winners who are dancing in the street 
            F                    G          
Perhaps the crime and corruption finally got through 
        G#                        C#           G#
And the violence of the city Just broke him in two 
      Eb             Bb
Now a voice from the queue shouts

Before this happened it was just another day 
F					    G
Now people are talking instead of walking away 

F  
Now we're gripped by this tragedy 
    G						G#   
Our blood starts to pump as we all shout together 
Eb    Bb     Eb   Bb
Don't jump, don't jump 

Chorus 

Don't look down, we all shouted out, oh 
Don't look down 
It's a long way to fall and I'd sure like to know 

What made it happen, guess we'll never know 
Now the sun's come out 
Looks like he's standing on a rainbow 
He's in the heavens, I'm standing on the ground 
Saying don't look down
