Rooftop chords by Don Mccloskey

Tuning: Standard EBGDAE

Difficulty: Novice





C  Bb Ab G  F Ab G
Well I been up since dawn
have someone else's T-shirt on
wonderin if these thoughts I think
will never stop to go on and on


C  Bb Ab G  F Ab G
I drink til I forget
say things that I regret
until theres nothing left
of the morning light and a cigarette
Ab
cause

Chorus:

Bb           C                           Ab
It all reminds me of a song I used to know
Bb                            C            Ab
When you would put the speakers in the window
     Bb       C                             Ab
and we would sit out on the firescape and watch

the sunrise over the rooftops


C  Bb Ab G  F Ab G
well, that was years ago, many painful tears ago
I almost lost it, thinking bout you many beers ago
But Im back on my feet, staggering and can't be beat
screaming out with swollen eyes and smashing bottles on the street below

Chorus:

Bb           C                           Ab
It all reminds me of a song I used to know
Bb                            C            Ab
When you would put the speakers in the window
     Bb       C                             Ab
and we would sit out on the firescape and watch

the sunrise over the rooftops

...woooo hooo hooo hoooo 2x

interlude



C  Bb Ab G  F Ab G
well theres no end in sight, at least not for me tonight
my loneliness gets stuck and when I see it in the morninglight
so I stick around to be destroyed, lovesick and paranoid
one step closer to the edge and one day further from the face I can't avoid

Chorus:

Bb           C                           Ab
It all reminds me of a song I used to know
Bb                            C            Ab
When you would put the speakers in the window
     Bb       C                             Ab
and we would sit out on the firescape and watch

the sunrise over the rooftops

THE END!
