The Beautiful Letdown Lyrics and Chords by Switchfoot

Song title: The Beautiful Letdown Lyrics

By: Switchfoot

VERSE

Twenty four oceans twenty four skies 

Twenty four failures in twenty four tries

Twenty four finds me in twenty fourth place

With twenty four drop outs at the end of the day

Life's not what I thought it was twenty four hours ago

Still I'm singing spirit take me up in arms with you

And I'm not who I thought I was twenty four hours ago

Still I'm singing spirit take me up in arms with you

It's twenty four reasons to admit that I'm wrong

With all my excuses still twenty four strong

PRE-CHORUS

But see I'm not coping out not coping out

Not coping out when you're raising the dead in me

CHORUS 

Oh  oh I am the second man oh  oh I am the second man

Now  oh I am the second man now and you're raising (these)

VERSE

Twenty four voices with twenty four hearts

And all of my symphonies in twenty four parts

But I wanna be one today centered and true

I'm singing spirit take me up in arms with you

PRE-CHORUS

You're raising the dead in me

The dead in me yeah

VERSE

I wanna see miracles to see the world change

Wrestled the angel for more than a name

For more than a feeling for more than a cause

I'm singing spirit take me up in arms with you

Twenty four oceans with twenty four hearts

With all of my symphonies in twenty four parts

Life is not what I thought it was twenty four hours ago

Still I'm singing spirit take me up in arms  Yeah

OUTRO

I'm not coping out not coping out not

I'm not coping out and you're raising the dead in me
