Song From The Sixteenth Floor chords by Paul Kelly

Capo 5

G  C  Am  F
G  C

                              G  C
Something's frying
                              G  C
On the floor below
                              G  F
I'm leaning out
                              G  C
Of my window

                              G  C
The sky's on fire
                                     G  C
The streets all aglow
                                        G  F
And somebody's singing
                     G
To the radio

G                      C
I would jump from the sixteenth floor
Am                  F
If I only could get next to you
G                C
Put my head in a lions jaw
Am                  F                                         G  C
If I only could get next to you next to you

                                    G  C
I'm walking the floor
                                    G  C
I'm climbing the walls
                                           G  F
I wake up from dreaming
                             G
That's when I fall

G                     C
I would jump from the sixteenth floor
Am                  F
If I only could get next to you
G                C
Put my head in a lions jaw
Am                  F
If I only could get next to you next to you
G                C
Take a ride on a wrecking ball
Am                 F
Yes I would darling
Dm          G
Every day I speak your name
Dm                 G
If I had wings I'd fly
Dm
'Cause you're not here to hold me

G                     C
I would jump from the sixteenth floor
Am                  F
If I only could get next to you
G                C
Put my head in a lions jaw
Am                  F
If I only could get next to you next to you
G                C
Take a ride on a wrecking ball
Am                 F
Yes I would darling
Dm          G
Every day I speak your name
Dm                 G
If I had wings I'd fly
Dm
There's no one here to hold me

Funky Instrumental Bit - Mostly C and G I think

G           C            Am  F
I'd walk on burning coal
G           C            Am  F
I'd sell my only soul
G           C                           Am  F
I would jump from the sixteenth floor
G           C                    Am  F
Put my head in a lions jaw (yes I would)
G           C                 Am  F
Take a ride on Niagara Falls
G           C                   Am  F
Over broken glass I would crawl

Ad lib - fade - or a quick G C like through the song is a good way to wrap up quickly
