Intro


Verse:
G+G
Now
I'm wakin' at the crack of dawn
            D MajorD
to send a little money home from here
    G+G
to the moon is risin' like a discotheque
               D MajorD
and now my bags are down and packed for traveling

G+G
Lookin' at happiness
keepin' my flavor fresh
nobody knows I guess
       D MajorD
How far I'll go, I know
    G+G
so I'm leavin' at Six O' Clock
meet in a parkin' lot
Harriet Hendershot
      D MajorD
Sunglasses on, she waits by this

Chorus:
 A augmentedA    G minorGm      D MajorD
Glass and concrete and stone
    A augmentedA   G minorGm      D MajorD
It is just a house, not a home

Verse:
G+G
Skin
that covers me from head to toe
           D MajorD
except a couple tiny holes and openings
G+G
where, the city's blowin' in and out
            D MajorD
this is what it's all about, delightfully

G+G
Everything's possible
when you're an animal
not inconceivable
         D MajorD
How things can change, I know
    G+G
So I'm puttin' on aftershave
nothin' is out of place
gonna be on my way
     D MajorD
Try to pretend, it's not only

Chorus:
 A augmentedA    G minorGm      D MajorD
Glass and concrete and stone
That it's just a house, not a home

Solo

Chorus:
And it's glass and concrete and stone
It is just a house, not a home

Chorus:
And my head is fifty feet high
Let my body and soul be my guide
