1. On a night like this I deserve to get kissed
G+G
At least once or twice,
C majorC
You come over to my place screaming blue murder,
G+G
Needing some place to hide.
C majorC
Well, I wish you'd keep quiet, imaginations run riot
G+G
In these paper-thin walls,
C majorC
And when the place comes ablaze with a thousand dropped names.
G+G
I don't know who to call.
B minorBm
But I got a friend over there in the government block,
C majorC
And he knows the situation and he's taking stock,
D MajorD C majorC
I think I'll call him up now, put him on the spot, tonight.
G+G - C majorC - G+G
Na na ? Na na ?.
C majorC
2. They saw me there in the square when I was shooting my mouth off
G+G
About saving some fish,
C majorC
Now could that be construed as some radical's views
G+G
Or some liberals' wish.
B minorBm
And it's so hot outside, and the air is so sweet,
C majorC
And when the pressure drop is heavy I don't wanna hear you speak,
D MajorD
You know most killing is committed at 90 degrees,
D7D7
When it's too hot to breathe and it's too hot to think.
G+G C majorC D MajorD
Chorus: There's always someone looking at you, oh oh oh oh oh. (3x)
FF C majorC
Tonight, they?re looking at you tonight.
Music Break : FF - C majorC - FF - C majorC - B minorBm - C majorC - D MajorD - D7D7 - C majorC
G+G
3. And I wish you'd stop whispering,
C majorC - G+G
Don?t flatter yourself, nobody's listening.
C majorC G+G
But it makes me nervous, those things you say,
C majorC
You may as well shout it from the roof,
G+G
Scream it from your lungs, and spit it from you mouth,
C majorC
It could fall on deaf ears to indulge in your fears.
D MajorD
There's a spy in the sky, there's a noise on the wire,
D7D7
There?s a tap on the line for every paranoid's desire.
[G+G C majorC D MajorD
Chorus: There's always someone looking at you, oh oh oh oh oh. (2x)
- G+G - C majorC - D MajorD - C majorC
They?re always looking at you. (7x)
