Elevator Story Chords & Lyrics - Misc Your Songs - Alana Brezenski

[VERSE 1]
Yo[C]u grew up in an [F]East Kentucky c[C]oal mining town
You[C]r teachers soon realized you were [F]destined to be o[C]utward bound
Wi[Em]th your sharp wit and [G]silver tongue the ivy league [Am]couldn't turn you down
So [C]you headed off one fa[F]ll to some old N[C]ew England town

[CHORUS]
[Bm]What happens when your elavator g[C]oes up more than it [G]comes down
[Bm]You been losing pieces of your self ev[C]er since you left t[G]his town
[Bm]You're so far away from your root[C]s we worry you will ne[G]ver be found
[G]We pray each [Em]night that your elv[C]ator comes back [G]to the ground

[VERSE 2]
Al[C]ways worried when you left i[F]f you'd fall in with t[C]he wrong crowd
So[C]ns of senators and corporate bankers [F]make up the crowd [C]you found
[Em]Majored in Poly Sci but calling l[G]ying a science don't give i[Am]t a better sound
Bu[C]t you dont even see the differnce w[F]ith the friends you'[C]ve got around

[CHORUS]
[Bm]What happens when your elavator g[C]oes up more than it [G]comes down
[Bm]You been losing pieces of your self ev[C]er since you left t[G]his town
[Bm]You're so far away from your root[C]s we worry you will ne[G]ver be found
[G]We pray each [Em]night that your elv[C]ator comes back [G]to the ground

[VERSE 3]
We[C] see you on the cable n[F]ews and ju[C]st look away
How[C] can a man get ri[F]ch on gove[C]rnment pay
Ma[Em]king laws and doing the pe[G]oples work is wh[Am]at you say
We[C] gained a governor b[F]ut lost a s[C]on today
